Just FYI, God doesn't "torture" people in Hell. Hell is a state of being where you make a conscious decision to turn away from God in the next life. And in doing so, you turn away from everything that is good and beautiful. When you don't have the physical world to distract you, you're left with nothing if not the love and goodness you rejected. The suffering comes from the emptiness of that, not from little horned men being ordered by God to burn you with torches.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
