Well of course to make your religion sound more palatable than it actually is. Perhaps you also believe yourself to have "sinned" and wish to escape the preachings of your own belief system? Perhaps you cannot stand the thought of a creator who would happily torture his own creations forever for what he made them and simultaneously claim eternal love for them.
Honestly, it could be any number of reasons and I'm not a mind-reader.
Since you invited me to lead this "train" would you care to discuss them?
Why convince you? I'm not trying to convince you of anything. Only trying to guide you as to how you have been duped and continue to be duped.
Was the rest of the above quote projection?
It is obvious to anyone reading this you have a need to sweep others up in your delusion to reassure yourself its true. Needless to say I don't believe in Hell but it is written in your holy book whether you like it or not.
I would suggest that you either a) feel you gain some benefit by believing your religion doesn't support the idea of hell or b) you're an attention seeker.
Of course you'd never admit to b) so tell me, what benefit do you gain from their not being a hell?
Or is that too personal?
