Heath Ledger

I just read that Heath Ledger passed away in his apartment today from an overdose. 

He was a talented actor, and seemed to be a decent father and all-around quality dude. 

It's a shame that a drug overdose (whether it's determined to be suicide or not) claimed such a young, talented guy.

My thoughts are with his friends and family.

I was watching The Hour--a some kind of interview-talk show. George, the host gave news that a Baptist Church clearly stated that Heath Ledger "is in hell now" because, one of the reasons, he starred in Brokeback Mountain.

After watching that i was agitated. i really believe that if you go to hell or not depends on your relationship with God and how you are as a person. Seriously, that BS church (or whomever stated that)frustrates me. Don't they believe that our sins are FORGIVEN? I'm confused about why they are so sure that Heath Ledger would have total damnation when they have no freakin idea of what a kind of person he was. They are utterly judgmental!

Sure, Heath promoted homosexuality, but who the frik are they to decide and say who's going to hell or not?

I'm sorry if this is a bad place for me to post this. I really don't know any other places to post this at. I just needed to let this out. Sorry.

I just pray that Heath Ledger can rest in peace.

I'm not so certain that Heath was trying to promote homosexuality, but perhaps his choice in accepting that particular role was a way for him to promote tolerance. Maybe there isn't a difference...but that certainly was a landmark performance that will be viewed far into the future.
