What is the torture, is it endless, and how does one earn it? Also, you make the mistake of calling disbelief 'victimless'. It is not victimless, because the person disbelieving is the victim; seperation from God is the torture, and that is Hell.

Quote:Oh and why do people end up in hell for simply having certain thoughts or lack ther of?It is not necessarily having certain thoughts that winds you up in Hell, it is choosing to believe in thsoe thoughts which does so. People end up in hell because they put themselves there. Convinced of their own thoughts or answers, they forget what they have learned and walk toward a path that is not constructive to their overall well-being, or the will of God.
