For clarity, I have reinserted the relevant quotes that are omitted with the automatic quoting system.
Actually, you did compare sex with hell. Anyone can see that by looking at your quoted posts above (which have links to the originals, so everyone can see that they are accurate for what you posted). You are the one who brought up sex as something frightening, like hell, to little girls. And in fact, you have done it again in your response that is quoted above!
Your total lack of honesty is not going to get many people to view you or your religion in a very good light.
Also, it is not a question of trying to scare children with hell. Hell, if real, would be frightening. So telling them about it at all, at any age, will be frightening, unless one tells them that it is a fairy tale or they are smart enough to not take it seriously.
You are either a moron for not understanding such an obvious fact, or you are just a liar, pretending not to know these things. Either way, you seem to have an almost allergic aversion to the truth.
I suppose, though, that this is very trivial in comparison with the fact that you support an international pedophile ring.

Hell is something to be taken very seriously, but not something with which parents should frighten small children.

You either tell children about hell or you don't. If you do, it is frightening to them. So are you saying that children should not be told about hell?
Sex frightens children, too. Especially the girls. THINK about what happens to them. Until they are ready for it, well, they aren't ready for it, okay? That's why parents normally EASE into the full truth over the course of several years as the kids are old enough to handle it.
Hell can be explained when it is appropriate to do so.
I should have expected you to evade the question, given how you have been ignoring it for so long.
Losty is right. Sex is not frightening, or should not be. Children are curious about it, and often ask about it, except when their elders react badly to such questions. So you are giving a false analogy.
If you think sex is comparable to hell for a woman, you must be doing something terribly wrong when you have sex.
LOL.
Okay, kid. I'm sure you've gotten laid a time or two. You may have even been sober enough to remember it.
But I was not comparing sex to hell. I was saying that lots of things are scary to small children - hell and sex can both be scary at inappropriate ages. If some parents try to scare their kids into behaving with threats of hell or the boogey man or whatever, that's bad parenting. It's not bad theology.
Try to grasp the big concepts here, okay?
