A compassionate judge given a verdict of guilty from a jury may not want to sentence a person to life in prison, but the law of justice requires him to do so. Does this concept also go over your head.1: The judge, in practice, is bound by the laws of the state, laws that are above his position.
2: The judge did not create the judicial system or the prison in which the guilty will be held.
God created both the system by which to judge people, and the place of eternal torture in which to keep them.
When I was a JW, we believed the Christian concept of hell was against a loving god, and that the punish for sin was what he said at the beginning to Adam and Eve.... death, eternal non-existence, nothing more nothing less.
