Your eyes weren't scratched yet; in other words you didn't see.
Forgiveness and penalty are both used to benefit the system that uses them. Using both can be pictured as a sultan carrying a sword in the right hand, and a sack of golden coins in the left. With a belly dancer shaking her heart out for wanting the coins; and dodging the sword swings.
God's forgiveness and reward were hijacked by sultans. Christian salvation is nothing but a church-pushed guarantee that the dance shall continue without extra swings.
But even that hijack is an illusion.
If it were true then I would agree some people certainly do deserve hell.
Since I don't believe it's true then I just hope that the worst of humanity is removed from our ranks sooner than later, and that those who have died are simply as mortal as the rest of us.
You just sleep better believing that the suffering of others would never be wasted
