It also shows how lacking in confidence it is in its ability to convince people. I mean, I used to be a maths teacher and I could get people to believe things without carrying around a torture rack. I had confidence in myself. And I wouldn't want them to just say they believed it so I didn't torture them, either.
What kind of sick fuck is this guy? Apart from fear, why is anyone giving him the time of day?
There is no "eternal punishment". Bad translation. The Greek words "kolasin aionion" means corrective chastisement for an age. The root meaning in kolasin is corrective pruning like for a tree. Not vindictive torment.
