"Why is it reasonable to believe in prisons, but not in the hell?"
RE: "Why is it reasonable to believe in prisons, but not in the hell?"
Pretty hard to reoffend in a prison. Even so, when people get out they can reoffend - but unless we're talking about killing and or imprisoning a thief for life....there's really no stopping that.

I'm gonna hit the pause button here. Are you searching for ways to salvage your objections to the reality of prisons, or your arguments about prisons unreality by their lack of utility or effectiveness?

Bad prisons that aren't effective or don't work are still prisons that exist. You understand that, right? You can't cogently object to prisons by what effect (or effectiveness) prisons have so long as you maintain that there aren't any prisons to refer to.........
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
