That is true. But when someone asks me questions/makes comments to me about the definition of Hell that is not the one I believe in, it makes me think they probably just don't understand the one I actually believe in. ...If that makes sense lol.
It's like, I say everything I say in the OP, and then someone comes on here and says to me "Well, I just don't get why a loving God would punish people." Ok, right. I don't either lol. That's not what I believe.
Haha, what else am I supposed to say to that person?
Well, it seems to me that the point is that there are these other conceptions of hell that are equally valid as yours, and those comments are made to point that out.
But in the post I quoted, you write, "Judging from some of the questions/comments, I can see that some of you simply did not understand the original post lol." I think that judgement is incorrect; I think others are mentioning other concepts of Hell and asking you to justify yours over theirs on grounds a little more substantial than "The Church told me so."
