I believe in physical hell and heaven, but what do you consider being a hell on earth?

Hell could more properly be defined as any soul where the light of God does not shine. This concept of a place of torture is primarily from early Christendom in an attempt to discourage the questioning the the Church's domination of land and wealth. As a physical place, (maybe with an address too?) that's a doubtful as a physical heaven somewhere above the clouds. Unless there is another plane of existence, which theoretically I can allow for as there is no way to disprove it, but up for heaven and down for hell has been disproved. Without the need for a physical location the soul would be its own repository for heaven or hell on earth or elsewhere.

I don't. But to believers, earth (as it now is) is the closest we will be to experiencing Hell. But the converse is true, to non-believers, earth is the closest thing to them as being Heaven.
