God doesn't damn anyone. Via their own choices some people choose to put themselves in their own hell. Even if they don't realize it or know how to do it they can leave at anytime. Someone who thinks they can determine who is helpless vs. who is hopeless must be a very special person existing in a special place.
Gerry Rafferty dies
I'm saddened to hear of of his death at the young age of 63. He was a supremely talented singer/songwriter/musician who suffered and died from progressive alcoholism which plagued him during his lifetime.
