obviously, none of you guys have ever seen The Black Hole (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078869/combined). if you go through a black hole and you're a bad guy, you get fused with your evil robot and end up in volcano-land. otherwise, you see some angels and stained glass windows or something.

The ending of The Black Hole is the most WTF ending I've seen for a science fiction movie, even more so than 2001. Not because it's deep or meaningful, simply because you're like, " . . .? Disney made this? Where's Jiminey Cricket to make it all right?" Maybe a better explanation is that it's Fantasia on a mean acid trip - just the ending, the rest of the movie is a halfway decent '60s sci-fi film.

Anyways, according to Stephen Hawking, there's nothing on the other side of a black hole because it's not a hole. Think of it more like a funnel where everything that falls into it is compressed into a single point of tremendous mass and gravity.

And as far as the afterlife - I'm a Catholic that believes in that view minus all the BS added in medieval times (indulgences, etc.) that in truth no sane Catholic believes in today. I don't think you can even ask for them. I also believe that you don't have to be Catholic to get into what some might call heaven, just be, as I think John Paul II said, just be the best Jew, Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist, Christian etc. that you can be. And I don't think living eternally would be so bad since you'd most likely lose all concept of time anyway.

Do Black Holes actually fill up?
I've been told that they don't but
I'm not 100% sure.
In this day and age, an era where there are people who actually throw shit at each other, anything, could be possible.

According to the theories I've read, no.

Everything that falls into a black hole just adds to the mass of that little point at the end of the funnel, or the singularity as it's also known. Stuff that gets sucked in is compressed continuously by gravity like a trash compactor that's always on. So that little point remains the same size but keeps getting heavier and heavier (more mass) and as a result gets more gravitational pull. The reason it's called a black hole is because the singularity's mass is so large that not even light, the supposed fastest thing in the universe, can escape it's pull. And it's not merely a theoretical abstract - astronomers have found radio and X-ray evidence of them throughout the cosmos. Some think that, as it consumes more and more matter, a black hole's mass will keep growing and its reach will keep expanding until it swallows pretty much everything.

Oh, and there's strong belief that there's a black hole at the center of our own galaxy. Sleep well tonight. (You actually should because if it does exist and did eat our galaxy you'd be long dead by that time.)

Yup, the theory is that there are supermassive black holes at the center of most galaxies; most of them are inactive and not taking in much matter, and there's a correlation between the mass of the whole and the shape of the galaxy.



(the directing of confessions through a priest and then making an indulgence)

Wha? What does a priest get out of hearing someone's sins? By indulgence, are you referring to tithes and offerings? Because that's like, in the bible to an extent and every protestant church I've been to has done it.
Maybe if you know your true love is about to move away to college or something, you can stick this shit in the stereo and make the moment last while at the same time listening to pussies whine about bitch shit. Just like you.

Indulgences, were around in the Catholic church centuries ago. If you bought a scrap of signed paper, the church claimed that it would get your loved ones out of purgatory and into heaven. It was a con.
