Yes my apologies to Christian who do not. I shouldn't have stereotyped all Christian together.

Only the fundamental Christians get off telling people they are going to hell. It is part of being a fundamental religion. Your standard run of the mill good religion is about building ethics and questioning the world around you. Your fundamental religion is about building ego and gaining power through destruction of free thought and fear tactics.

I'm a Christian and I get off telling people about God's love and His ultimate sacrifice that we would be reconciled to Him. I was in hell before I had the Lord in my life and am living today and tomorrow will take care of itself. Religion is for people afraid of hell and spirituality is for those who don't want to go back.

Yeah, I kind of get a lot of that... :(
But that's a generalization, and not all the Christians enjoy telling others they're going to Hell.

pal, if you think that anyone who seem to be getting off telling others they are going to hell, maybe its way about time to evaluate their claim.Who knows, they are only christians by name?

Because they have an abundance of a little thing called hypocrisy. They can preach that only God can tell who will go to heaven or hell, then they can call themselves God and condemn people to hell for whatever they feel like.

REAL CHRISTIANS don't tell people they're going to hell.
They pray for all people!
