weemarryanne you and I for not believing in this invisible entity will be tortured for all eternity,
are simple question what proof is there has not been answered and for this the unproven invisible entity will torture us for eternity,
suppose eternity is 1 trillion years,
we are alive 70 years,
the ratio of punishment is 1 trillion to 70,
so i hope someone shows us some proof real fast

It's worse. It's not even of astronomical proportions, this invisble super-Being is actually of imponderable proportions. In fact, we are asked to believe that everything about it is imponderable, but bizarrely it spends a lot of time pondering about little old us.
Some people are truly delusional.

No, He is a loving Heavenly Father...and He will not torture those who do not believe. Hell and misery comes from knowing the consequences of all your negative actions...ex. when a killer dies, he sees all the lives he tore apart and the people he hurt, feels their pain.
God does not literally torture us. Even after death, He gives us another chance.

NO! you are not right. There is an invisible (to human sight) entity that is a spirit in all life...even yours...whether you believe or not. Torture for eternity is a human concept of fear to bring the believers in line.

The Bible clearly teaches that there is a Heaven and a Hell. Those who have turned to Christ for forgiveness in faith will obtain that forgiveness and eternal life in Heaven. Those who refused to believe will have to pay for their sins themselves in a place called Hell.
Each man is given the free will to choose what he will place his faith in. If you choose to place your faith in your own ideas and opinions (that of a sinful, finite being), then so be it. I choose to place my faith in God (a perfect, holy, infinite being) and the Holy Bible.
When you stand before God after this life is over (Rev 20:11-15), you will see that God's truth is all that really mattered.
I pray that you will turn to Christ before that day.

U do well when u say "intangible entity of astronomical proportions"...becoz so is God, He is huge and we dont have enough brains to concile all physical phenomena in one...we always need separated concepts to understand the reality...
this is why atheits find it very complicated, to put all things together (all the contents of the universe in all times) in a single concept: GOD...
But yeah, I am afraid if u dont recognize His power over u, after death u will pay for ur insolence.

Try (test drive) the Spirits(Gods):
Law wasn't sufficient, try Grace.
Grace is suffcieint, so flush Law.
Both good + evil an oxyMORON.
Law is good, but it is also evil.
Our Father, deliver us from evil: Mt 6:13
We are delivered from the law: Rom 7:6
What remains is y(our) awareness of it.
For God our Saviour will have two things:
- all men saved(only), by grace(only)
- all men aware what saved from: law
That's why grace + truth came by JC.
Increased understanding = decreased misunderstanding.
Solomon: With all thy getting, get understanding (Prov 4).
Clarity: if understanding embraced, grace glory is crown.
The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.

I'm not quite sure what you are asking but I think your inquiring about Satan and hell. God wants us to know about His love 1st and for most. Don't get so hung up about hell. It is not God's desire that anyone goes there

Basically "Yes" would be your answer from alot of people on this board. I kinda ponder the same type of questions in my head so thanks for asking it.
