You're goddamned straight I've got no respect for the object of your fetish.

The very same verse you're referencing has Jesus calling hell "the eternal fire". That's a mighty fine cherry-picker you've got there.
Aren't you worried about directly contradicting the god you claim to worship?
Lek / Parkers Tan
From what I understand the lake of fire burns up the
"devil beast and false prophet"
(Satan/Antichrist/FalseProphet, opposite of Holy Trinity)
so by removing those influences, the souls are saved.
Man is made in the image of god
body/mind/spirit as a microcosm or reflection
of God/Christ/HolySpirit
So that part is pure and eternal, and it's the corruption
that is removed and burned away "cast into the lake of fire"
Disclaimer: Of course, I was told I am going to hell for teaching that all souls can be saved. So only listen to this interpretation if you are okay with whatever consequences result from this interpretation.
