I mean really... christians cannot truly believe in hell. If they did, would they ever have children? Would they really put anyone into that situation where there's any chance at all they may end up getting tortured forever?
If they really do believe in proper hell, and have children regardless, they are gambling with someone else's eternal suffering. That is beyond messed up.
Hell in the Bible simply means grave. There have been a lot of misinterpretations of the word hell.
None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.

Hell in the Bible simply means "grave" where the hell does the "lake of fire" come into play?

Ah well, it goes to show oral myth trumps even the physical text. I think some kind of reference may be there at some point, but the whole thing is blown way out of proportion from what is written, I reckon.
People generally don't read the bible for information, they believe what they are told it says. Even more dumb.

- Revelation 20:10 "And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever."
Revelations was always my favorite. Does that seem ambiguous to anybody? Seems to be a clear description of hell.

I was more referring to the "lake of fire" where we unbelievers are gonna end up. Not sure where strawdawg is getting 'hell is only a grave' thing from.
Quote:Revelation 21:8 - But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

Hell is whatever is most convenient at the time for the agenda being pushed.
