No matter how evil you were, Christ will forgive you if you convert. No matter how good you were, Christ will condemn you if you don't convert. Therefore, Hell is not to punish wrongdoers but rather to torture wrong thinkers. This is not justice. This is a dictator tormenting non-loyal citizens.
That statement is written so well that I actually got chills from reading it. What a great summary. It shows how pathetic the whole process of "going to hell or heaven" is and I just do not understand how Christians can not see the ignorance in it. But again... blind sheep can't see.
