If the bible were the only place that hell existed this might be true...but something tells me that you don't think that hell is confined to the page.
Quote: The catholic version of hell has it's roots in various religions it has assimilated over the centuries.Yeah, and your version of hell is based on theirs, in case you were unaware.
Quote:The biblical version is not so elobrate, with different levels of hell and or puratory where the devil rules the realm. All those elements were borrowed from the greeks, pagans and roman mythology.The OT version isn't "so elaborate". The NT version -is-. Far as I can tell from your various posts on the subject, you don't subscribe to the OT version of hell. You're an NT man, a christian, eh?
Quote:If you want to talk about the God of the Bible or the Hell of the bible then it is to the bible we must turn to for reference.Which bible, which version, in what timeframe? Again, this might be true if hell were confined to the page......
Also, massive bullshit Drich. Did you get your info about hell from the bible alone (any version)? I seem to recall you claiming to have had an experience of sorts.......?
