No, actually. I'm not Catholic, so I can't tell you for sure if the rings of hell are the same today, but I know Dante's model is what good Catholics believed hell was like in his day. Although this is true, "Inferno" is more a metaphor for Dante's life, and many of the people he meets there are people he politically and socially disagrees/disagreed with in real life.

Umm, no. It's fiction. Much like Milton's Paradise Lost, which most uninformed people view as the official story about how Lucifer fell from God's good graces. It's all just fiction.

He had to have been high when he wrote the Inferno.
I got tired when reading about the nine levels.
Shame on you Judas, Cassius and Brutus!

Paradise Lost is better, Milton paints an interesting picture... of course I don't believe a word of it

Maybe, but "A Tourist's Guide to Detroit" is better!

Yeah, it tells you all the good spots. Where the best fire beaches are, where you can get a "real" tan and what not

That would be funny "You are Here X" For pain and suffering, follow the footsteps, for eternal damnation, look all around....

It's more like a handbook for dating.
