True, and, from having spent over a decade in the church, I can tell you that Christians can't even agree on what hell is-some, like C.S. Lewis have a pretty benign outlook on it, where it's a place where you get what you want, and god is absent. Others insist that, no, it's literally a place of burning forever, where god is present with his wrath. And then they have the gal to point out disagreements among scientists about rational things.
