If you were in Hell, would you know you were there?

[Mothra1988]

Ages ago some Christian told me that hell is not fire & brimstone type of deal, but a place with the absence of God. That would kinda explain everything going on, if we are in there right now.
maybe i'd prefer the fire

That would be Sheol I believe. I think it's different from the lake of fire that Satan is going to be thrown into. Most of the confusion comes from Dante and Roman paganism. Popular culture tends to define these concepts for a lot of people.

 

[DumbDude42]

this place is hell, null is the devil, and the other posters are demons sent to torment me

The world ended in first century AD and we are all currently experiencing eternal damnation. I know because I am the 2123rd reincarnation of the Finnish emperor Mustahomoseksuaali the fifth.

 

[Caesare]

You're reminding me of a sermon that my former Pastor gave about Hell and it included no hope.

I was told that Earth is Satan's dominion, hence all our suffering/diseases.

Basically yeah. That's what I was trying to say in my own awkward, convoluted way.

 

[Colonel Gaddafi]

I died ten years ago, of course this is hell.

 

[Wormy]

Obligatory

 

[Calvin Coolidge]

If i feel my ass burning, yeah; probably is hell.

Or it might be the clap.

 

[Car Won't Crank]

I would have to ask @Dante Alighieri for a second opinion.

Hell is other people. - Jean-Paul Sartre
Hell is also yourself. - Robert Crumb
Hell is my only home. - Shinran

Hell is all around us. You only need to wake up and accept it.

I once was at a Baptist service.

And the minister described Hell as a world where there were no consequences for peoples actions

Holy shit. I mean does that not sound like now?

 

[Manwithn0n0men]

Holy shit. I mean does that not sound like now?

I mean....that was my reaction when he said it

 

[Roxanne Wolf]

You mean to tell me this isn't hell we're in right now? Shit, then I guess my bar is set too high.

 

[Osmosis Jones]

I almost died a few years ago, right around the time everything started going absolutely insane. It certainly feels like I woke up in Hell, and maybe I did. Maybe the state of the world is just drawing out some latent mental health problems and I'm slowly going insane. Maybe that's what Hell is. Oh well.

 

[Mile High Club]

Even in my darkest days I still had positive experiences with companionship, art, music, and food. I think if I was in a place that held no joy at all, that must be hell.

 

[Niggaplease]

I believe hell is just a place of suffering

 

[mickey339]

You would know because it is worse than anything else you have experienced.

 

[WalMart]

All my friends would be there

 

[Bum Driller]

Yes. I'm quite sure that Heaven doesn't have Kiwifarms.

 

[gang weeder]

I would think you would, because I believe Hell is at least in part a punishment, and a punishment is only effective if the recipient understands why they're being punished. But maybe not, who knows. Not a topic I would know much about.
