Whoever invented hell is a sick psychopathic person
What i have most problems is that its not just. Like try to think of a court case. One has killed a person so you are judged according to the law. Now that makes sense. You are judged on what you do. But to judge someone on their beliefs is totally silly to be honest.
God wants you to come to irrational conclusions where you ignore all your critical thinking, ignore the lack of evidence and just take people's word for things. That's pretty insulting to any kind of God, to expect him to be so deranged. What kind of properties in people is he looking for like this, and why does he want people to not use their brains to their full potential?
That's on top of the mind-bendingly arrogant assumption that the creator of the whole universe cares about our grimy, insignificant puke of an existence above everything else, even down to an individual level.
