That is true, slipknot. Traditional Christians have very dark views about hell, but only because the Church has pushed those views to futher their power seeking agendas. They put fear in the flock, and it stuck!

Hell is not a place to fear, it is merely the place of unrest inside ourselves...much like what you probably feel now. Do you let your anger rule over you at times? Do you let your bitterness rule over you at times? Do you let fear, jealousy, and strife have power over you? All the darkness of the heart that destroys our peace and serenity is hell; it is not pleasant, but certainly not something to cause great fear...we all experience this, but we all have an opportunity to free ourselves from this, also. This is what we call the carnal state of man, and it simply destroys our inner peace.

My opinion...


Much Love,
