What if hell is actually a huge disco party at Big Gay Al's Gay Animal Sanctuary? Would you be more inclined to attend? Would you bring friends?

I think Hell is what we live in right now. Death, Dieing, Acute Illnesses, Chorinic Illnesses, Pain, Suffering, Suicides, losing loved ones, War, Lies, Crime, profanity, Nudity, Gangs, Discrimination, Racism, and the Growth of the Human Ego

HI
It is not what you were taught. Hell fire is derived from mythology and some person misinterpreted one scripture to base this whole teaching. The bible says Jesus went to Hell. do you think god would torture his own son he did exactly as he was told? No Hell means the grave and when we are in the grave we are conscious of nothing at all until the Resurrection. So there dying is not as scary as people think and that Hell has no sound bible bases in it teaching it has been adopted out of roman and Greek mythology.

Some are taught in church that Hell is a place of suffering where evil souls go and Heaven is where good people go.
This is not a bible teaching:
Did Abraham die and went to a ever-burning hell? Surely idol worshippers would not be in heaven. Yet, Abraham was with his forefathers, Scripture says.
Joshua 24:2 - "Terah, the father of Abraham, and the father of Nachor; and they served other deities," Genesis 15:15. "And you shall go to your fathers".
King David was a righteous king he must of gone to heaven? NO?
Acts 2:34 - For David did not ascend into the heavens.
When Lazarus died Jesus spoke to Martha that he was in Heaven? NO?
John 11:11 - Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.
Besides Jesus there must of been some one righteous enough to go to heaven? NO?
John 3:13 - No one has ascended into heaven except he who descended from heaven, the Son of Man.
When Jesus kingdom arrives he promised the good will go to heaven. NO?
Matthew 5:5 - Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
Surely people who are holy as saints and priests will rule with Jesus in heaven? NO?
Revelation 5:10 - You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth."
finally, the second death (from Rev 21:8) is a location for bad people to suffer in a fiery place. NO?
Rev 20:14 - And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
-The Second death is a judgment not a location. Jesus is promising that those who are not wicked will be resurrected and never die again.
Verdict: Death is Hell. It's the grave where we are like in a sleep like state but have no conscience thought. Waiting to be brought back to life if we have followed Jesus teachings.
