It's difficult to explain, but I believe Hell is more like a state of being rather than a physical place. The way one theologian described it was that a person who is in Hell is constantly in a state that is devoid of goodness. Their minds are constantly in opposition to love or anything that is good.
None of this is official doctrine, just opinion/speculation amongst some theologians. It makes sense to me though.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
