How is hell supposed to hurt you? If you're dead, you have no nerves and nerves are necessary to feel pain. I mean, what would really be left of a person with no nervous system altogether?
Anyway, I fear Christian hell about as much as I fear Muslim hell or being reincarnated as a hungry ghost. Which is to say, none of them really scare me that much. If you're still scared, take comfort that a just, loving god would never send someone to eteral torture simply for seeking answers and truth. If any god would do that, we're dealing with a pretty warped diety and if you're that messed up, perhaps his idea of hell would be pretty damn cool and their idea of heaven would be horrible.
