Of the three words translated to hell in your bible, one of them absolutely and without any argument from anyone whatsoever means torture. "Tartarus" fruitcake. Had this convo on the forums awhile back with Salty I believe. Good thread I'll try to dig it up for you.
(take away the torture and no one would believe in your tiny, fear-mongering god)
dont waste your time. I have spent countless minutes showing G-C all the verses about Hell that make it into a place of torture and all he does is ignore it.
I even point out that his very signature speaks of a "stroll through hell" with a firey demon on it and he still acts like hell isnt torture.
Apparently hell is an eternal punishment... but that somehow doesnt = torture to him.
To me, he just wants to avoid any negative wording for anything he believes in. "Torture" is negative, and reserved for him to use for other religions.
See how quickly he turns my words and twists them? Either he isnt very bright, not very good at reading comprehension, or just prefers to outright lie.
I think its a mix of all three.
