    What is “none of that stuff”? Both Satan and Hell are in the Bible.

      They mention it a lot, but never say what it is beyond it having fire that never goes out, some passage in Matthew.

      Christians have just ran away with some ideas, just like with pro-life, just like with the devil, just like with most of the religion. You decide what you want to believe and twist the Bible to back it up.

        Almost the entirety of hell was made up by Dante Alegeri

        Not sure why I’m being down voted. You’ve reaffirmed my statement.

          Well when someone says something like Hell, a huge fixture of the religion, is in their holy book they just expect more than a sentence or two.

        Thank you. This points to many examples of Hell in scripture.

        I tend to lean towards Jewish teachings as Christianity, at it’s heart, is a Jewish faith.

          My point was that the “hell” in scripture is only very loosely connected to the modern concept of hell as a physical place where souls are sent for eternal punishment.
