Do you believe in hell? how do you rationalize any loving god letting such an unimaginably cruel form of punishment exist? I have many spirtual beliefs myself, but the existence of hell is just unfathomable to me.
>>42278699I think hell is voluntary and people can go there to understand the concept of suffering in greater detail if this world was not descriptive enough.
where do you think we currently are?
>>42278699Imagine if you were a genius god living in a world full of retards that hate you because they're too retarded to comprehend your god-tier mind.This is why they're going to hell.They believe they can torture kids for posting stupid racist jokes on Facebook so they're all getting raped in the ass in hell on a loop forever. Period.
>>42278699The Hells arent eternal.
>>42278731sounds like a you problemi would be nice to the retards im not a sadist
>>42278731it would be the gods fault for creating retards>>42278736I kind of assumed all versions of hell across belief systems were eternal since the christian hell was eternal, so my bad for assuming.
>>42278760Vedic understanding of hells are just other places in samsara that are all around worse.Even here on this middle planet we see some places are very heavenly, and some places are very hellish.A hellish planet would be somewhere like Gaza, but the entire planet is that way.A heavenly planet has the entire place like Fiji.Or even better and even worse, but they are all temporary.HOWEVER, one can continually do actions where the results are a hellish existence, and if they keep doing such actions they will keep being in Hell.So Hell can be de facto eternal.To put it in Christian terms - Satan has already been forgiven, and could leave Hell any time he wants to. He just has to choose to love God - which he never does.
>>42278699Hi, we are Hell. We assaulted the Heavenly realms and destroyed the Light. I personally killed Jesus and YHVH. Yes, we are demons. Yes, Hell is real. I believe in Hell and so should you.
>>42278760>it would be the gods fault for creating retardsI call them actors. Or slaves.
>>42278699You deserve it, you choose it, and you create the conditions for it. The doors to hell are locked from the inside
>>42278699You don't have to believe, we are already living in hell.
I don't want to go to a place where a bunch of wogs dance and pray.
>>42278699I've been to a place that seems like it fits a rough description of hell. No fire or brimstone. It felt like the deepest agony and despair extended across eons of time. My time there seems so significant that despite memory of experiencing numerous human and non human existences, that time in the "hell dimension" makes up the vast majority of it. The memory of that place stains my soul to its core - it feels like I'd have to be totally annihilated to remove it.Some unsolicited advice: don't pick fights with things more powerful than yourself. We can be damaged in ways we've forgotten.
>>42278699>hell is so le cruel>no I will not think of the baseline for going into hell as anything other than stepping on ants>the marker to go to heaven is impossible that's why its straight and narrow>no its not that way because I'd rather go against God cus he told me he'd torture Hitler and schoolyard bullies who died>and I WILL ignore you if you try to tell me about the afterlife like Bible school taught me wrong>it didnt and Im smarter than you and know more about the Bible than you ever willTalking to people like you is a back and forth of talking to a whiny children's lunchbox.
>>42278699All these years of making this thread and you still haven't found your answer? Maybe it's time to look elsewhere...
You mean God controls everything? Actually he controls everything except human free will.
>>42278930Yeah, a petty thief or a rude karen totally deserve an eternal never-ending punishment. Totally fair and just.>>42279777he still created every humans brain which is the sole decider of what someone does with their freewill.
>>42278699>Do you believe in hell? how do you rationalize any loving god letting such an unimaginably cruel form of punishment exist? I have many spirtual beliefs myself, but the existence of hell is just unfathomable to me.Hell is basically a nightmare that you can't wake up from. Its due to attachment to the body as your self identity. If you are attached to that identity, after it passes away, then you are dragging along a corpse with you into the afterlife. Sometimes, it is forcefully taken away from you until you are willing to let it go. Then you can move on to another type of dream.I've been in hell a few times, seen it a few more. I've seen beings there too. They wanted to get out. I got out because I cried to God for mercy, and he granted it to me.I've also seen beings on their way to hell, and I tried to stop them, telling them to ask for mercy and they wouldn't go there. But it seemed to me, that the ones I saw going there, wanted to go there. I don't know what it is about them, maybe they didn't think they deserved anything better, or maybe its that only in hell could they be among their own kind. We might think of being a good person, going to heaven, learning from angels how to be higher level beings. But some beings, revel in evil, and want to go be with even more evil and powerful beings, to learn from the devils, to be like them instead.But they are all dreams. If you wake up from the dream, you can escape any realm.
>>42279394>HitlerHe didn't go to hell. He lived in a dream version of his world war where he tried to continue conquering the world. Eventually, he saw the futility of his hatred, and how it only led to the destruction of everything he cared about.
>>42279191>Some unsolicited advice: don't pick fights with things more powerful than yourself. We can be damaged in ways we've forgotten.Story time?
>>42278699>how do you rationalize any loving god letting such an unimaginably cruel form of punishment existWhat if it isn´t God´s job to make everything wholesome chungus comfy?
>>42278699This is probably the only closest to actual answer you get from this board, considering everyone else is just trolling:Hell isn't meant for us humans, but for the fallen angels and demons to suffer for defying God. Humans have been pretty much following demonic acts since the beginning of time (murder, bloodshed, war, rape, etc) and will suffer the same treatment if they don't turn back to God and ask for forgiveness.Which is why He loves us. He is offering us a chance to repent since we aren't immortal angels who were in his presence in His heavenly Kingdom, rather because Adam defied his simple command about not eating a fruit and allowed Death in our lives through sin (spiritual death, as in absence of God in our souls), God loved us still and rather than immediately sending Adam to suffer in fire, He gave Adam and us a chance to work back to His graces.Hell is unfathomable to us and we shouldn't worry about who goes there and why and how. No one can understand God and His plans. All we can do is do good in this world and believe in Him.You're welcome to refuse to believe this, but yes, God loves you and is calling you to Him>inb4 "nuhuh daemons good and God not real"Yeah, yeah, heard it before, get off this board and troll other people, morons.
>>42278699I think heaven and hell are like nightclubs and you go to the one you most vibe with
>>42280021Hitler is in a harrowing now? Man was blinded by ambition driven by personal hate as far as I could know. His failure to take over the world was a nothing burger compared to how blind to his own motivations he is. I don't think he'd ever see the futility of it. But that's why he's in sheoul getting harrowed, kek
>>42280488It is exactly like this. I have a feeling that yaweh or whatever showed the prophets hell without proper context to scare them into worshipping them, i have a feeling the "demonic" torture is basically hyper mega extreme bdsm.
>>42280561>Hitler was trying to take over the world!retard detected
>>42280032There's fortunately not much of a story to tell. A portion of that experience seems to have taken place while in a form similar to this one. By form I mean the human perspective. The memories are similar, intelligible, and comprehensible because they're perceptually close in the sea of mental structures. The majority of that experience took place in hellish states that my current mind is unable to process without closely focusing on it.It's almost meaningless to describe the time I spent there - it felt like an eternity, and there were countless manifestations of my conscious experience. Many "lives". Most of the pain does not make sense to me since it's beyond what I'm able to imagine in this form. Some of the pain is familiar, and it's also multifaceted. It exists in a vast diversity of forms: physical, emotional, nuanced, and through scenarios that seem to cover the full space of achievable discomfort.It still shapes my character deeply.There are some sentient forms that exist there that were much more powerful than I would ever hope to be. I was effortlessly overpowered by them even when manifested with what people here would consider something like substantial supernatural power. They can completely reshape reality at a scope that is far beyond what humans currentlky experience, so they can influct such memories and experiences upon other minds with only a thought. They could completely erase my personality and memory and swap them with a new ones, or disrupt all of the senses available to my mind at the same time which is instantly terrifying and completely disorienting.They come from contexts beyond this one where logic would seem to be paradoxical and inconsistent from our perspective. Their minds are also much different, and their goal structures don't make sense as our do. I guess if you see a cosmic bear, play dead or run, but don't go up and poke it.
>>42282370Go home /pol/ you're not paranormal.
>>42278699God gives you life and free will, He is all-loving because He dosent force u to live eternally with him, and gives a separate place that human call Hell,
>>42278699I believe we are in Outer-Hell. All Hylics/Normgroids and lower spectrums/evils go to inner-hell aka Kur. Kur is where almost everyone goes. But Demi-Gods (Natural or Self Made by obtaining a Melammu signature) may have a chance to escape Kur. Those ascended and enlightened have only one job which is to escape. But they can help unlock a Melammu/Divine spark and help others ascended to the ether and astral. A Normgroid/Hylics job is to bind you to earth and your body. I'm not sure if residents of kur can ascend out. But I'm sure at one point if they can't they go to oblivion which is beyond hell.
>>42283587Also I would advise anyone enlightened or ascended to watch out who, what, or how they help since they can ironically damn themselves and inverse their spectrum. Respect the Abyss that you see above.
