Yup and add Godflesh in there too.

The buddhist hell is damn scary though. They cook people pots of oil and skin people alive. Lots lots more that I'm glad I don't remember.

Meh. It's only temporary, though. Soon enough, you're reborn in a higher realm...like the hungry ghosts. Yeay!!!

Temporary....like, for example, only 424,673,280,000,000,000 years!

So by the time you would be released from hell, Universe would be filled with black holes and red shifted stars? I would rather stay in thatt hell than freeze in the dying universe.

I'm rather impressed by how much shit they managed to come up with. I remember as a kid reading all these things and they don't even have 1 book, they have all sorts of "books" and chants. You can even escape certain punishment if the living chants something for you within 7 days of your death.

Very detailed stuff.

You people are bigots.

This dipiction of Hell speaks to a specific culture. The things they fear, the things that are terrifing to them. I let the post go long enough to gather evidence that speaks to the fact that the majority of your insults are not to Hell in general, but what a specific group/Race of people are scared of. Which makes me ask if these Koreans were Africans or just black people who live in your country would you be so insentive to steriotype and laugh at what scares them? Of course not, as that line is alittle more black and white and easy to see. But when that line turns yellow and white somehow it is ok to cross it?

Please explain.

When I was in Japan I went to a museum in Yokohama which was a mix of their superstitions and their victims of war. Concepts of utopias and eternal punishment are not unique to monotheism and are in every culture to varying degrees and are not unique to the Abrahamic traditions.

Which is where this discussion is at. again we are not talking about Hell specifically, we are talking about what koreans fear and how foolish it seems to the people making fun of it.

I guess what we should be talking about is how christianity takes peoples fears and leverages it.


.

Hell isn't just what people fear. It's what people use to instil fear and many even wish hell on others.

And yea, quit with the cultural sensitivity shit, I make fun of all religions almost equally.

I want you to explain to me how this thread is bigoted. Point to one thing that was racially or culturally insensitive. I also want you to point to one thing that, if this was about Africans, no one would say.

Isn't being hyper-sensitive about racial and culture issues an extreme left-wing thing? You're not going "Nancy Pelosi," are you?
