I would think it was one wild ride... ...this is my strategy....[/quote] I'm underage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, again, the answer to your problem is to become Catholic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose some people just have a fear of heights. But I think most people who are afraid of flying are afraid of crashing, which implies that they are afraid to die. For a Catholic, there is no reason to fear death. So, I suggest you become Catholic, and then your fears of flying can be overcome. [/quote] brilliant.
