shock *crosses Hell off of 'Places to Visit' list*
Seriously, though. I'm sure that the demons can find a way to make the pain just as unbearable each time.

Wouldn't you get used to it? I mean, everyone gets used to everything, so why can't we get used to torture? Therefore, if we get used to torture, hell seems to backfire doesn't it?

in a case like that i'd say you'd be too busy being dead after number 10 to worry about number 50 😉
theoretically there are limits to pain the mind can endure without passing out but assuming there is a biblical hell. it would be quite easy to remove these limits mystically and fire infinite pain into the bieing forever . the mere thought of such an exerience makes my hair stand out of excitement.

xyz has a good point here.
Most people are thinking too short-term. You have ETERNITY to condition your mind to whatever pain is being inflicted upon you. It might still be "pain" in the traditional sense, but given an eternity to work at it, you could train your mind to enjoy it, regardless of the type of pain (physical, emotional, spiritual, etc.).
The only argument I've heard that evens attempts to consider my point (and xyz's) is "Well, that's a good point, but Hell and Heaven are beyond what we can imagine." Ok, but the same principle still applies...it might just take longer to condition ourselves.
I've always said that if Hell does exist, I want to be sent there instead of Heaven. Then I'll make a Heaven of Hell just to spite teh "god" that sent me there.

The main problem is that there is no way to know what the body can get used to if it has eternity.
Demons could attack you psychologially and prevent you from building up and sort of defense against the pain. Alternately they could wipe the resistances from your brain once you constructed them.

Good luck cuz you don't really have no say of what goes on in hell, not even of yourself. Just imagine getting cought in fire of 1000's of degrees more than the usual and just for a second do it every day for the rest of your life and see if you can endure it after the first time.
