Thread: Would you rather be in heaven or hell?

it doesn't matter, we're all going to burn in Hell for all eternity anyway. It will be as if somebody pushed you into a lake of lava, except you can't free yourself, you never pass out, and you're already dead. There's only a certain amount of pain that the human brain can experience at one time before sensory overload occurs and you can't feel any more pain. There will be no limit to the amount of pain the soul experiences in Hell. This means that the amount of pain you experience will be more painful than every amount of pain that every living thing has ever experienced, combined. And it will be like that constantly, forever.

And from a very early age, we're told that this will happen to us if we aren't "good Christians". By a god whose love is supposedly unconditional.

Considering Hell is for the most part the separation of love, I'd rather dwell amongst love, bliss for eternity.

Hell has no further horrors.

That's funny. Why are believers mindless and the non-believers thinkers? Just maybe your agenda is showing.

George Bernard Shaw said he would go to heaven for the climate, but hell for the conversation.

If it turns out that Christianity is "real", as you say.....that there is a Heaven and Hell....then that means Christians are more discerning and intelligent than YOU non-believers.

So....wanna talk about "mindless" some more?...LOL

I do not intend to speak for the individual whom you're addressing, but I'd like to chime in. Believers believe what they believe. not just on faith (e.g., in the absence of supporting evidence), but contrary to huge amounts of evidence.
