As to your question? Exactly...
It seems like 'Gehenna' is interchangable with hell. As for hades, I guess they just ignore it. Gehenna and hades in the bible
Wikipedia Wrote:The King James Version is the only English translation in modern use to translate Sheol, Hades, and Gehenna as Hell. The New International Version, New Living Translation, New American Standard Bible (among others) all reserve the term hell only for when Gehenna is used.
So you think a burning garbage dump represents "hell"?
Why would a logical person think that God would punish the "wicked" for eternity? Why would a logical person think that God wrote a book that was obviously written by men?
What are you arguing aginst here? God or the authors of the pages of the bible?
