Then how come the devil cant pick up ice from Alaska?. Gehenna, In islam is from the same root word so its a place of fire abyss. The 7th place of hell i think is the abyss which is essentially nothing. And Sulfur doesnt really count. So the only reason is the middle east was always hot, so basically being in a cold place was possibly paradise to them. No wonder they wanted to get to heaven so fast since its like dozens of minus degrees up there. Actually in Dante's Inferno, Ice is actually mentioned in the abyss (aka added outside the bible. The catholics) Which may explain why they use "Hel" as the norse figure for hell. To try to add outside biblical reasons to make sense off their myth to their fellow worshippers. Which may explain the typical "Cold as hell" expression, even though that is an oxymoron by itself.It's hilarious, they hadn't found snow yet. Yahweh and Allah were dumbshits.
But thats the problem. To me this seems like some childish bedtime story you will tell to scare people. I actually believed in Christianity for awhile. But now that i actually thought how this is most likely a mythological made belief. Well i honestly have a hard time looking some theist face to face if this honestly makes sense to them. I mean i am not jewish but i can atleast understand how that one atleast makes a tad bit more sense. Ok. So you are dead, ok your body is destroyed, your god heals you, and Gehenna in judaism is ment to purify your soul not burn you for eternity. Actually the devil is simply an accuser, someone who wishes people to fall astray.. now that actually makes more sense than the sects after it with christianity and islam.
Although hadnt it been for Christianity we wouldnt have gotten some inspirational stories like this. But in the end its just pure fairy tales. What do you think?
