The fire and brimstone imagery of Abrahamic religious definition is simply graphic imagery to encourage individuals through fear to live a Godly life, whether this is justifiable is dependent on your individual view.
There is certainly a hellish condition of life that can be experienced, this is dependant on the activities and desires you as an individual perform and manifest, if positive activities are performed then you receive in equal and opposite proportions the result of those activities, the same applies to negative activities that create suffering, pain etc, you will receive an equal amount of the same experience to rectify your improper actions.
However these are material activities, what is most important to understand is there are activities that do not produce any material reaction good or bad, these activities are devotional activities that are performed to satisfy the Supreme, these activities revive the original spiritual body that is temporarily covered by the ever changing material energy.

Yes...look it up in a good cross rev Bible the word hell in Gr. hades, Heb Sheol both mean the same referring to man-kinds common grave not a place of torture.
The Catholic Church centuries ago used it to scare the common people to stay with the church.
They even had painters like Dante showing the Devil with a pitch fork torturing the dead in the firing hell.

I think there is a hell. I believe in the Bible-The Word of the One True Living God. I believe in Heaven as well. I know some of you think "what if your wrong", What if I am? I know that I can live my life in peace "thinking" I am going to a better place when I die. But What if I am right and what if your wrong?

Yes, Jesus said there is a hell....He spoke more of hell than he did of heaven...
I definitely choose to believe Him rather than these dumb opinions on the internet.
Of course, most of those who hope there is NO Hell have good reason to NOT want to go there.
According to the Bible...
It is a real place of eternal damnation and unbelieveable suffering and anguish

Some think that when you die and don't go to heaven that is the "hell"
Most believe that there is a heaven and hell
Heaven the wonderful place
Hell say the bible is a place of torture "gnashing of Teeth" I looked this up and that is indeed "hell" pain, torture.

A place in Michigan is named Hell, but no, there is no afterlife and thus no hell.
