Amazon.com: George H. Gallup Jr. provides the statistics (53 percent of Americans believe in Hell, 70 percent in Heaven), and two religious authors and a priest provide the spiritual interpretation in this exploration of the basis of belief in the afterlife. The video is divided into segments on Revelation, Hell, and Heaven, and actors read Biblical passages underlining the narration by Ed Ragozzino and the scholarly input. Apostle John's dramatized visions of the end of the world and the Second Coming, images of Hell (hint: fire is involved), and an artist's depiction of the 1,500-square-mile cube that would be the heavenly New Jerusalem bring the content alive. Father Pompei of Philadelphia compares his parish neighborhood to Hell, and author Joni Eareckson Tada (Heaven: Your Real Home) movingly describes how she came to look forward to a heavenly afterlife, and the new body she believes will come with it, after an accident in her teens left her paralyzed from the neck down. Author and theologian Dr. Larry Poland (2084) rounds out the panel of experts. --Kimberly Heinrichs
