The mainstream view is eternal fiery torture, so that's what I usually rail against.
Revelation 20:
10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
People who do not believe in eternal torture, do not believe in what is stated in the Bible.
I can agree with the principle of what you stated, just not the word torture. People who believe in making a point should use the words from said book. Torment! and it doesn't ever say that God is the one delivering the torment. Like I said in above post I do not want to derail this thread over what hell is. This would be for a different thread, I just wanted to mention a couple things here. Thanks

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
