I do affirm that God created hell, who else has the power to do so. Sin is against the everlasting God and as long as the sin goes unforgiven the sin is in effect. Same as a life sentence we give to criminals, if they did not die they would remain in prison forever because the crime isn't paid for. Fortunately we have One who has made it possible for our sin to be forgiven.

Actually, knowing that you're a Baptist, I do know quite a lot about what you believe hell to be like (it's not like Baptists got all secretive like the Mormons and Scientologists did). Your doctrine, in general if not the specifics of your pastor's takes on them, are all out there for the world to see and the Baptist view of hell is almost exclusively extra-biblical. "Paradise Lost" and Dante's "Divine Comedy" inform your view of hell a hell of a lot () more than your buy-bull. Of course, you could provide some scriptures describing that Baptist vision of hell? Or not. I really have no fucks to give one way or the other since it's all a great whacking load of shit anyway.
Since you don't care there's no need to explain, but it's not what Baptist believe.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
