The Christian notion of an eternal hell was invented by Saul of Tarsus,who effectively invented the religion called 'Christianity'*
I may be mistaken but I believe the person I am asking is a Christian, this is the belief system I am putting under a microscope with my line of questioning and although that is related I kind of wanted to establish his line of reasoning.
Your reply is appreciated though as I was not aware of this and it is a very interesting and useful fact.
Thank you.
