The concept is ridiculous. Which supremely twisted perverse brain invented this idea.

If there is a supreme being who created a universe where this can take place then he is really sick

Even worse... what kind of compassionate being would subject its creations to such torment, particularly when it has the power to prevent such fates? Only a sick, evil, perverted being could be capable of such behavior, which further illustrates the fact that god is a fabrication of man.

Yes, haven't you heard of people like Jeffrey Dahmer or Ted Bundy or a whole slew of other people that were so evil that they do deserve a eternity of hell. There is nothing ridiculous, twisted or perverse about having these people go where they belong.

This is exactly why God is going to destroy all false religions, because they make him look wicked by making sinners suffer an eternity in a fiery hell, but there is no fiery hell, no eternity of torment, God will just put them out of existence, they will be no more, this is actually a loving thing to do, because he cannot allow them to exist and cause trouble for his people.

Since when is an idea ridiculous just because it is offensive to you? You, like all others who ask this question; fail to understand the difference between our sense of good and evil vs. God's. And you also don't Appreciate his right to punish as he sees fit. The bottom line though is that he provided a way out for you, and you have continued to spit in his face. Why shouldn't he punish that?

not something. not something that any imperfect human can do is deserving of eternal torment. in actuality the Bible states: (Romans 6:23) . . .For the wages sin will pay is dying. . . it is as quickly as we die we pay for all our sins, no rely how many or how few. the belief of of burning human beings for his or her sins is purely an concept that hadn't even entered into God's ideas: (Jeremiah 7:31) and that they have got equipped the intense places of To?pheth, it is interior the valley of the son of Hin?nom, with the intention to burn their sons and their daughters interior the hearth, an element that I had not commanded and that had not arise into my heart.’ What a shame and dishonor to God's call for human beings to coach this God dishonoring doctrine. it fairly is a vicious and evil slander against the God of love. and that i'm happy to consistently defend him from such vicious slander from inconsiderate liars approximately his solid call.

First of all, your question is weighted and immediately biased; it's not a fair question. Your comment underneath reveals that you have already made up your mind and it will hardly matter what anyone answers; you are looking only to find people who will agree with you. Others, like myself, you will quickly read, spurn, and criticize. You aren't even leaving the option open for people to disagree with you, because they are quickly labeled as "supremely twisted & perverse". Are you even OPEN to any sort of candid discussion of possible truths?
However, if I was to try to address your question, I would ask the following question of my own:
"What kind of a God would intentionally FORCE a human being who, for an entire lifetime spurned and rejected him, hating him and wishing nothing except to avoid him, to spend all of eternity with that God? If a human being, for a lifetime, intentionally hates God, why on earth would he WANT to spend an eternity in heaven with him? Wouldn't hell be a better option? If you hated me and were my chief despiser, wouldn't it be actually EVIL of ME to FORCE you to be in a room with me forever? So why should God FORCE human beings who HATE him to be with him forever?"
OR another question for you:
"What kind of a human being, when offered the chance to know, be loved by, and be forever with the most beautiful being in the entire universe, infinitely more amazing, stunning, kind, loving, and welcoming, who actually came to earth and died for him or her, would then intentionally spurn and turn away from that being, choosing instead an option of torment rather than an eternity of joy?"

You seem to be very naive. Of course there is evil so dark that the perpetrators should be condemned to torment for all of eternity. What time limit would you impose on their punishment? If they were not condemned for all eternity, they might possibly be restored to further practice their evil on humanity. God knew exactly what He was doing!

There are some very evil men out there like Hugh Hefner, he should be hung by his penis until he dies. Men who prey on younger women and take more than one wife they should be punished.
