Just beacuse I believe heaven exists does not neccesitate the existance of a hell. I believe if we are beholden to God we return to God's presence (heaven)when we die. I believe atheists are completely right that for them there is nothing when they die, that would be hell for me. Spending a lifetime, or several, apart from God's Love stuck in endless cycles of birth and death would be hell. Yes I feel predominantly that it's the absense of God that is hell. I mean Jesus cast out demon to hell, but God cast down satan to wander the earth on his belly... I see some signifigance there.

Truly one of those questions that referenced in terms of, "How Literal Do You Take The Bible"...Because Hell is described in more than 5 - 6 passages throughout the NT. Matt 5:22, Matt 25:41, Matt 25:46, Mark 9:48, Luke 16:22-24, Rev 20:14.....Just to name a few....

It is your burden when you declare something to be true for yourself and someone questions it...
