Every sinner in hell has a full realization that he deserves to be there. Each sinner has a fully informed, acutely aware, and sensitive conscience which, in hell, becomes his own tormenter. This is the experience of torture in hell—a person fully aware of his or her sin with a relentlessly accusing conscience, without relief for even one moment. The guilt of sin will produce shame and everlasting self-hatred.
We, at this very moment know that eternal punishment for a lifetime of sins is justified and deserved. We have two simple options, repent or go-to-hell.
You read it, but apparently digested none of it. I am already fully aware that Christianity worships a bloodthirsty asshole and blames the victim. This thread isn't about justifying God's desire to torture and harm people, but punishment you can't learn from or use is nothing more than petty malice on the part of your awful god.
