The highly symbolic work of Revelation still conforms with the idea of Hell as the absence of the Lord. Since the Lord is Divine Love and Wisdom, then Hell is a 'place', or state of being, where these qualities are absent. The infernal fires of hell are the burning lusts and rage of those who prefer their sin over the contentment and bliss of righteousness.

... and you know this how?

Burning lust doesn't seem that bad for starters. Reminds me a bit of my teenage years.

He's got this book...
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Goes to show. You're six years my junior.

And anti depressants and their side effects don't exactly help.

Hell is the absence of God according to the biblical picture. It's not the op's doing if you have adopted another person's understanding of the term, and can not identify a biblical picture of hell.

I said nor implied anything about hell. The comment was not a continuation of the hell discussion.

My next suggestion is to stop being a knee-jerk reactionist.
