No wonder religion is formal(not serious) world wide, as people don't wish to turn their life in to "little purgatory" for heavenly afterlife.
a little presumptuous don't you think? In that you think you know what the second death is? Death here in this life is the ceasing of cognitive thought and the termination of biological life. But the question should be, is this what the second death is or is limited to? Scripture describes something else. There is a reason why many believe Hell is eternal torment, because in part that is what the bible describes Hell to be, (for satan and his angels) but at the same time Jesus Himself says it is where the soul is destroyed.
Now what Jesus said, did not include a time limit on how long this destruction/death would take. Think RotJ and the Great Pit of Carkoon (where the sarlacc digests his victims over thousands of years.) Death is most likely not immediate. I have it on pretty good authority/It is my thought that you will 'simmer' in Hell based on how you lived your life. And once the evil is burned away then what's left is also consumed by hell fire. Meaning your sanity is finally consumed, and either what's left is burned up or is further burned won't really matter much any more.
The most amazing thing is that this stuff is embraced by people who WISH to be almost as slaves/servants to a God as a blessing or a tool to KILL their ambitions, preforming some sort of mental lifelong choking of their ambitions. Path of a martyr is creepy.
