search Stull, Kansas and you'll get a bunch of links
Stull Cemetery
The cemetery located in Stull has gained an amount of dubious recognition as being one of the gateways to Hell and the various references to the Devil and the occult. The old Evangelical Church, built in 1867, was torn down in March 2002

The Gates of Hell is a monumental sculptural group work by French artist Auguste Rodin. It stands at 6 m high, 4 m wide and 1 m deep and contains 180 figures. The figures range from 15 cm high up to more than one metre. Several of the figures were also cast independently by Rodin.
Locations
The plaster original was restored in 1917 and is displayed at the Musée d'Orsay in Paris. A series of plaster casts illustrating the development of the work is on view at the Musée Rodin in Meudon. Also in 1917, a model was used to make the original three bronze casts:
The Musée Rodin, Paris:
The Rodin Museum, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The National Museum of Western Art in Ueno Park, Tokyo.
Subsequent bronzes have been distributed by the Musée Rodin to a number of locations, including:
The [Kunsthaus Zurich], Zurich
The B. Gerald Cantor Rodin Sculpture Garden at Stanford University
The Rodin Gallery, Seoul, Korea

There are gates to hell in Elizebethtown, Kentucky. They are real. Noone goes down there, and we went once and you could hear screaming voices of people pleading for their lives. It was real. The same voice can be heard if you go there at night anytime. It's down a long hwy that turns into a dirt road that leads to a dead end in the forrest. Thats were a gate is. Another is right outside of highland Falls New York a huge valley that leads to hell. If you look at google earth around highland falls and zoom in you will see the name Hell Hole, New York. It is not on any other map or atlas that I know of.

The "Gates to Hell" originated from France which translates to"La Ported el `En fer" back in 1880. The "Gates to Hell" actually is the name of a monumental sculptural group work created by the French artist Auguste Rodin.His work was commissioned by Directorate of Fine Arts. He was asked to sculptor an inviting entrance to the future site of the Decorative Arts museum. I have no in cling on where they got Kansas out of that!

I don't believe of those so called 'Gateways' that open to hell or other worlds or parallel universes, they are nothing in my opinion but science fiction and there has never been any evidence to support what you are saying.
If any were true, don't you think there would have been someone throughout history who would have already tried entering that gateway for proof?
I think you are mistaking this in some what with the religious belief of there being seven level of Heaven and hell in which the actions you do in this life determine which level you start on after you die. In the case of hell, the more evil you are on Earth, the more you are near the stanic level (which I surmise would be the last seventh level). In heaven, the goodness of your life, the higher in levels you would be in understanding knowledge, the universe, meaning of life and all that is yet to be.

Not sure about that, I assume the entire state of Kansas might be the gate of Hell, who is to know? God did not put a map to the gates of Hell in the bible.

The gate to hell is in reality, if it exists, a transition to a lower plane of existence, so there could be no 'physical' gate on the earth where living people occupy!
However volcanic vents do exist in the earths crust, and I'm sure that might give some the appearance of hell!

In Greek mythology there is a cave called Avernus (alternately: Aornus) which Aeneas uses as a gate to the underworld. Avernus is a real place, very inhospitable, so it's easy to see how the ancient Greeks thought it was a gate to Hades' realm.
FYI, Avernus is Greek for "no green" (as in, no plants) while Aornus is Greek for "no birds." This is a clear indication that Avernus is a volcanic vent that occassionally gives off toxic gases.

Guarded by a seven headed dog named Cerberus, nice pet. Aeneas really liked him, when he toured hell.

Here's some FACTS about christians:
hell was created by christians - so shall they go there!
christians have KILLED more people in the history of humanity than any other group.
christians have persecuted millions of "non-believers" just because they DIDN'T believe in "christianity!
christians are by far the most brain-washed - brain-dead believers in the world today!
Here's the Solution, even for christians:
Create a private, personal, direct, divine Relationship with Our Creator and save your Soul from religion.
Only with Our Creator's Love and Peace will we be Truly Free!
Without God, there is No Love; Without religion, there are No Wars!
