Fame! I’m gonna make it to heaven Light up the sky like a flame

Fame! I’m gonna live forever Baby remember my name

These lyrics from Fame (the musical) address a basic desire of all human beings — to live forever. The lyrics also reveal an assumed connection between fame and living forever.  But the Christian teaching about everlasting life is much different from the originally pagan idea of fame as immortality.  Lesson 10 of the Luke E. Hart audio course, read by Fr. Guy Selvester, discusses the four last things, Purgatory, and why there are no second chances after death.

Thanks to the St. Gregory Society for providing this lesson’s music.
