Justifications of hell

Justifications of hell
So, recently, I asked on Chrtistianity StackExchange this question:
Quote:How do believers in hell respond to the argument "What finite crime deserves an infinite punishment?"?

Crimes and their punishment are not gauged by the suffering of the victim. How would that work in practice?

Well, I agree. Especially Christians should agree with that since it's the Christians who tend to support War on Drugs (and punishment of other victimless crimes), and not atheists.

Do you also agree that we have a rule about posting material you’ve written for other websites? Do you further agree that your repeated behaviour has got you on the razor’s edge of being permanently banned from this Forum?
