Is Hell Real?

Hell is awful. It is like you are being burned napalm forever and ever. Evil horrible demons will stab you screech at you and rip your flesh off. You might "Hell is on giant party" or "All the cool people are in Hell."

...Says the guy who happily stands behind the god that set this whole system up, unnecessarily.

Luckily for me, there's no evidence any of this is real, so I can go about my life without worry of being sent to a nonfalsifiable afterlife by a nonfalsifiable entity for having committed "sins" that I don't even know exist.

Newsflash people! You will have no fun and no conversations in Hell. You will be too busy burning to care.

Many haughty atheists like to snigger and guffaw about Hell being real. Why would it be fake though, if so many people have been to Hell and back?

I like how all the videos you linked us to were from Christian people or people who grew up among Christian society. 
When the brain is dying - or thinks it's dying- what else would it do but try to make sense of the situation by plugging in what it thinks comes next? Near-death experiences are often just hallucinations influenced by the culture one was raised in. 

I don't think hell exists. I can't know for certain, but it's probably a myth. 

How do I know this? Because the afterlife itself probably does not exist. 

And how do I know this? Because the soul (a necessary object for the afterlife to be real) probably doesn't exist. 

And how do I know this? Common sense. There isn't a reason to believe in it. The brain can be proven responsible for every aspect of you as a person: your personality, your actions, your beliefs, your desires, your ability to reason, to emphasize, to have awareness, to experience emotion, the love you have for other people, virtually everything originates and is carried out by your brain, as can be seen in the subject of psychology. So the problem is, if we know that the brain is responsible for everything, and we know that it ceases functioning after we die, then what does the "soul" carry on with it to the afterlife? The brain explains everything without need for a soul... so whatever lives on after you die, is it really even you? What of you is left? Simply a life force, though the thing that gave you a life force (you heart and your material body) is gone? But even a life force, without a brain, has no conscious awareness. So you would not be you, and you would not be aware that you are in Heaven, or in Hell, among deceased family members, or among demons. Without a brain, you cannot feel, or see, or experience agony or bliss. So the afterlife itself becomes obsolete. 

Or, more realistically, it doesn't exist at all. 

The afterlife is a concept made up by ungrateful and cowardly humans unable to accept that, yes, this is all you get, and after this, it's over.

Why do you use swear words? That is so angry and hateful.

I beg you to reconsider. Christ is real and loves you very much.

Just welcome him into your heart. Start off welcoming him just a little bit. See how it goes Smile
I see assertions but no evidence of hell.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Real talk: telling a child there is a real place called hell where they or others may go after death is straight-up child abuse.

@OP

I'm perfectly comfortable with my conclusion that he'll is not real. Heaven doesn't interest me.

Your religon got anything else I might be interested in?

Didn't think so.

Sure, hell is real. But Yahweh isn't the only game in town. There's plenty of other gods to worship. One of them will likely save you even if you don't believe. I'm sure they could use the believers. They can't afford to be picky.
