Reply to comment by IML_42 in [WP] You died and awoke in the afterlife. It's quite nice actually. The people and atmosphere are a lot nicer than you are used to and there is no stress or pressure. When you ask what good deed got you into heaven you are informed that this is hell, followed by a visit from a very concerned demon. by Kitty_Fuchs
I imagine this man never wanted much out of life other than to just be comfortable with a modest lifestyle and to be kind to others. Following his parents teachings and that of the church perhaps failed to properly prepare him for the troubles and cruelty he found later in life. Feeling betrayed he allowed himself to commit unsavory acts to survive, eventually falling into a life of petty crime just to survive. This lead to hell which was far better than the life he lived before ending in the streets beaten to death.
I like this story.
