[Gathnet] the desire to go (with)

I've long thought that many kids, Bethany in particular, have really no
interest in a particular place.  They just want  to be sure they are
included and not left.  If Anita or Scott begin to ask who might be
interested in going to the zoo,  the library, the dump, or wherever, they
only need to  get as far as the word "go", and Bethany chimes in loudly with
"I do".   The destination under discussion is not relevant in her mind.
Never was this more apparent that a couple weeks ago when the visiting
pastor, in an effort to prod people from the comfort of complacency toward
the lost, asked the congregation "Does anyone here want to go to hell?" From
the back on the sanctuary, one little hand shot immediately into the air and
Bethany's voice rang out loudly and clearly"I DO!".
