My asking you questions is not designed to shut down the conversation, but to get you to think a little differently about what is being discussed.
Rasetsu wanted physical evidence.. But how is that possible if hell is not a physical place?
The idea here is to move beyond the limits she has placed on this conversation to perhaps take in the bigger picture. In that this universe is far greater and more diverse than what we can physically account for. So why limit what one can understand by what can physically be observed?
I get what you're saying, just pointing out that this line of reasoning also robs you of your authority to make any experiential claims about what hell would be like too, given that the only things we can perceive with any degree of objectivity come via our sensory apparatus and outside confirmation.
Effectively, agreeing with what you're saying places us in a position where nobody can talk about this subject at all, since none of us know anything about the place. And yet there you are, making declarative statements about hell.
