Can bible really be interpreted as if there is no torment but you cease to exist

[Doubting Thomas]

1. Hell is a place, so to speak, but not what we usually think of a place being. It is not on earth, and neither is heaven. It is spiritual, meaning you won't have a body to burn or a physical brain to think with. Your spirit will be in torment because you missed Christ when he was staring you in the face.

Why would my soul be in torment for missing Jesus when I spent my entire life without him around?

And seriously, your idea that atheists "want" to go to Hell after death is just plain ludicrous. All I want from death is eternal oblivion, to cease to exist any more. And I'm sure that's what I'll get.

I'm sure you get comfort from your idea of Heaven & Hell, but unless you have a shred of evidence that what you're saying is true, don't try to convince anyone else of it.
