Telling children that they are going to hell is abusive?
#7
RE: Telling children that they are going to hell is abusive?
In catechism class, I can recall one of the other students asking the Sister if people would go to hell for not believing in hell.  I've always found her reply rather neat:  'As Catholics, we are all required to believe in Hell as a place of everlasting torment.  Whether you choose to believe anyone is actually there is entirely up to you.'
