I think it's a cold, dark, depressing place. More or less a desert at night. In Hell, you wonder the place for all enternity, alone and miserable. Running over in your mind why you're all alone and why you're there.

It makes sense to have a place that gives you psychological fear, which is a lot more painful then physical fear.

I imagine it kinda like a dark prison cell, where you live in complete lonliness.

I would probably take endless torturing rather then place where you are alone too.

You could get used to pain in few hundred years...their "back of painful tricks" would finally be empty.

Where does Satan get his demons? (Do you believe that he does have those?)

I don't think I could get used to pain...cry

But to be alone would be the end of my sanity...

I don't think there is a hell anymore...I think that is a creation of man..As for demons...I think that is also a creation of man...Though I did grow up in a Pentecostal church where demons were talked about all the time...They were here, in your house, in your van, in you bad friend, they were just everywhere..It really made a person paranoid..It really freaks you out...Gee I remember my step-mom telling her pastor that I had a demon, and they put a prayer cloth under my bed and hung one in my closet....how disturbing..And I thought she had one...
fear

If you would be tortured for an millenia, you could get used to it.

Theological question: If a masochist kills someone and goes in Hell, wouldn't that be reward to him?

(If they torture people in hell)

^ maybe after a millennium it would feel good...Makes you feel alive..But wouldn't the torturer get tired and have to take a break??

I don't think demons get tired.

Where have you read this??? I think it would become a bore after zillions of years to torture someone, don't you think,,then it would be hell for the demons.

Men do bad things, even orrible things.And God creates men like he is.
So how can God be good if he creates a being capable of doing acts like kill or beat down his similar?
I don't believe in God or even the Devil/Satana/Call him like you prefere, but I like to imagine they are just two capricious brothers that use their powers to annoy each other.

Lol, me too.

I said in another room that I'm not ignorant enough to believe that Satan will pin some medal on me because of my deliberate rejection of God and my own Luciferian beliefs(very mild than my youth I might add). Satan hates everybodyand everthing except his own rise to power. If I go to hell I'm sure Satan will stab me in the back but in this life I have now I can do what I wish. The only reason I admire Him is because of a common interest. He wants to be God. So do I. We both hate God. Being a human is a stale existence compared to what could God could have made us if he wasn't so greedy with his power. Anyone who says they don't care about those things I belive is speaking out of fear of wrath from God.
God does't do crap. He doesn't need too. Our own fear defeats ourselves. He's a silent nail biter. If God wants you to go to heaven and live in eternal bliss for eternity, hell with it. Sounds like free drinks to me. But if sends you to hell because you couldn't find the right religion, which today is seriously a needle in a haystack then fugg that guy. I rather spend eternity in hell than live with a picky hypochondriac who wouldn't even make his most devoted followers Gods like him. I'd rather burn than be God's fluffer boy.
God killed the party for us all. What an assclown. sadangel

It's strange how we have so much knowledge about the so called things of God but at the end of the day we are still clueless!
How can we believe anything when there is a plauseable argument for everything.
We are at the mercy of time. Time is our only security. After that....Who knows?

Ok what? Satan doesnt punish people because he has a problem with evil. Its the only people God allow satan have. Satan hates all mankind and wants to bring everyone he can down with him. He did it with the angels and he damn sure wants to do it with man too. As far as I can imagine, he is aware of what God wants to do with mankind. Possibly even jealous.
Satan may be an ass-hole. But he's our kind of ass-hole. Hail Satan! Drink Pepsi! pepsi

God can't be a literal flesh and blood man. God is a presence, a spiritual unfathomable entity. By being in His image would have to be in spirit of some kind...maybe having thoughts, or maybe being in existence it's self.

Since in the beginning all God looked at man and said "it was very good", maybe, it was the presents of all things good that He instilled in man plus free will.. according to scripture.

I agree. Fright Night was just a movie man...just a movie...

Umm......satan doesn't punish sinners...misery loves company. Unlike popular belief may say, Satan suffers in hell as well, it's a place of punishment. Now..If i'm correct, earth was given to satan..either way, it's a simple misunderstanding anyone could make, so no fault there.

If you would be tortured for an millenia, you could get used to it.

Since god's power is eternal, if you're ment to suffer for eternity, you will, you'll never get used to it. In fact, it'll probably just get worse, and just when you think it couldn't be any more painful, it will get that way. There are other methods of torture other than physical pain, leading us to our next topic. If they like pain, than they will be denied it probably...or given a pain too large to handle proving too much of a "good" thing, can be a bad thing. 😉

thats how I interpretered it as well during christianity classes(christianity is mandatory in Norwegian schools for all except those of a different religion/sets of beliefs that dont wanna take part in those classes) back in the school days

Satan hates mankind. He does not like people who do evil anymore than he likes people who do good. He only "tolerates" those he can control because he cannot love--he does not have that in him, he only hates. He hates all life except his own. He hates GOD, and everything HE has created. You want an example of his mindset, take for example murderers, thiefs, liars, rapists, racists, abusers. That is how Satan thinks--he is the author of that mindset--it started with him. He does not love anybody but himself, and he will do whatever is in his best interest, not anyone else's.

Satan is our enemy

Satan knows his destiny and is full of hate and lies. He will do anything to screw up your life. He takes pleasure in destroying lives. He seeks to destroy and kill. He doesn't try to treat people nice who are like him because he has such a great hatred for God. He wants to take as many with him as he can. He's like the person who has gone mad and destroys everyone in his way.
