Can you eat an Oscar?

Barbara Walters had a special before the Academy Awards. She interviewed Mickey Rourke who was up for Best Actor for his performance in The Wrestler.

At the end of the interview she asked what winning an oscar would mean to him. He said it would mean a great deal. That it'd be a tremendous honor. He said it would sum up his comeback in a material way. That must've sparked a contrast in his mind between the material & the spiritual because then he said, "But in the big picture-- you can't eat it, you can't ____ it, and it can't-- it won't get me into heaven."

How 'bout that?

Then what will get Mickey Rourke into heaven if winning an Oscar won't?

"No one has ascended into heaven except he who descended from heaven,
the Son of Man.
...that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son,
that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life."

(John 3:13-16 ESV)

(I asked Kathleen about the second part of what Mickey Rourke said. The part about not being able to... well I won't repeat it. She said he meant you can't have a personal relationship with an Oscar. Huh. Not only did she know what he meant, she also knew guys often equate what he was talking about with having a relationship. She's smart that way.)
