And, for the records, Jews don’t believe in eternal torture.

Boru

Thank you for the information.
So, Jews are fortunate for not having rules to obey because even if there are some, they can disobey them as if these rules don't exist in the first place.
I bet Smile that soon Later, I will likely hear that Jesus whose message is about living the Unconditional Love towards all others (when he says: Love your enemies. Don't resist evil) also created the notion of a torturing hell.

I haven't noticed a particular difference between how devoutly Jews obey their laws and how devoutly Christians do, even in fear of hell. Weird, huh?

In the NT, Jesus talks about hell more than he does heaven, and talks about hell more than any other character in the Bible. But he doesn't present it in a way that sounds like he originated the idea. He doesn't have to explain the idea to anyone, they already know about hell.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
