1. If the Biblical descriptions are to be believed...
Heaven is not only hotter than Hell, but blindingly bright.

3. 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.

There's a cute page on the climates of hell and heaven http://www.lhup.edu/~dsimanek/hell.htm">here along with a tongue-in-cheek 'refutation' based on the population density increasing the atmospheric pressure of hell enough to make it hotter than heaven, "which remains deucedly hot."

4. what always killed me...
is the we were supposedly created in god's image, and we are god's children. Kids can sometimes be REAL bad, but what sane parent would condemn their child to eternal fire?

6. That is funny you say that.
One of my sister's arguments was that "he"(YAH) was like a parent and is sad when his children perish and live in eternal damnation.

7. This is what kills me...
If these fundies are goin' to "Heaven" then that means it's gonna be full of anal-retentive, tight-lipped judgmental bastards who wouldn't know bliss if it smacked them upside the head.

The rest of us "Sinners" if we're doomed to "Hell" then that sounds a lot more fun--like where the par-tay is happenin'

It's a matter of semantics: You say "Lake of Fire where you burn in eternal damnation" I say: "Barbeque and Pool Party":evilgrin: :party: :toast:
