Hell

Hell happens when we don't work together for peace, when we don't care about others, when we don't understand what suffering there is in this world.

Hell is not an easy topic to discuss since I have never been there-- at least not in the physical sense.

A wealthy farmer went to church one Sunday. After services he said to the priest, »Father, that was a damned good sermon you gave, damned good!«
»I'm happy you liked it,« said the priest. »But I wish you wouldn't use those terms in expressing yourself.«
»I can't help it,« said the rich farmer. »I still think it was a damned good sermon. In fact, I liked it so much I put a hundred dollar bill in the collection basket.«
»The hell you did?!« replied the priest.

hell exists only in your mind, its what you want it to be. find hell and you find yourself, your own fears and lust

»Better to reign in Hell, than serve in Heaven.« That's what Satan says to his pal Beelzebub while they lie like beached whales in the eternal lake of fire in Milton's Paradise Lost (Book I, line 262). You've gotta wonder about ambition like that.

Two hells is one hell too many. If we are already in hell, then we should all go to paradise when we die. If there is a hell after death, then we are supposedly having fun down here. I don't see where the fun part is.

Life in hell is an awesome comic strip that is/was the precursor to The Simpsons family that we've all come to know and love. There are a few books, if you don't already have them, go out and buy The Big Book of Hell, the Huge Book of Hell, and all
of the smaller books.

So far these people in the bookstore...

It should be said that before the existance of a devil, or anti-God, the underworld of death was not seen as a negative place. Every God had a part to play in nature, and was vital to humanity's existance. Dualism, Good vs. Evil, has led to Us vs. Them. Who wants to be Them?
