AquinasD's conception of Hell

[AquinasD]

No, this is not just another thread asking if anybody will go to Hell. This is entirely different. That is why I ask mods do not merge this with the other thread, because this is totally unique, as it is specifically about my own conception of Hell which does not yet have a thread for it.

I wrote this essay on Hell.

Do you agree or disagree with what I said? Why?

Any tl;dr's are going to be considered spam. I know my essay is rather lengthy (5 pages), but I believe it is rather well done and worth discussing.

I probably will read this soon, since I think this is an interesting topic. However, right now it's 3 in the morning, and I've just read the first three books of Rousseau's The Social Contract, and simply cannot take in any more infomation. I can't even figure out if you spell information with an r or not. Infomation, information. I think it must be information, as in, to inform.

ZME, you made yourself look like you're a little high right now.

Oh my burger flipping goodness.
You have no idea. Hahahahahahahaha

That's perhaps the funniest thing I can recall you ever saying.

I didn't read it all yet, but from what I've read, I fully agree with you. I'll finish reading it later.

Possibly sig-worthy

This is what Heaven is. Hell, then, is an eternal separation from God. If this separation isn’t eternal, it isn’t Hell.[/b]

Amen. I agree with the conclusion, but I don't have the time right now to read the rest of the essay.

[God-Sent]

He is essentially breaking our free will, and a broken free will cannot appreciate Heaven.[/b]

I would add that God can not break free will because He gave free will and will not go against His own choice and action He declared so that a Calvinist can't say your limiting God's Sovereignty by saying we have free will.

it is God letting people who reject Him have exactly what they wish, and they find it to be unfulfilling in every possible way.[/b]

I agree with this statement and in my own discussions with people reflect this though in a slightly different way than you do.

Also, I would like to know your thoughts on the fact the Bible states there are different levels of punishment/sufferings in Hell.

.

The reply that it would seem Judas has been damned because Jesus said “It would have been better for this person to not be born” is tempered by the knowledge that Judas partook of the Eucharist at the Last Supper, which certainly outweighs Hell if we consider God infinitely great and anything evil without the ability to overcome Him.[/b]

no comment.

interesting read overall

At that point its redundant, plus that point is more cogent in a discussion on miracles.
