All three believed, in different ways, that death is not the end of human life. Suppose they were right, and suppose they met after death. How might the conversation go?

In the end, they all decide where they will spend eternity.

No two are exactly alike, but they are as inevitable and as prevalent as the common cold. They are "dates from hell", those traumatic dates that are too terrible to believe, yet too vivid ever to forget. The only thing better than recounting details of your own hellish date is hearing about other people's disaster dates. Here are true-life accounts of dates gone horribly wrong.

The Marriage of Heaven and Hell by the English poet William Blake consists of a series of texts written in the style of biblical prophecy but expressing Blake's own beliefs. Composed between 1790 and 1793, the book makes reference to Milton and Swedenborg, and adopts a device from Dante's Divine Comedy and Milton's Paradise Lost: a visit to hell. Blake expresses a deliberately depolarized and unified vision of the cosmos in which the material world and physical desire are both part of the divine order.
