What kind of question is that? Is Hell real?
Yes, it is. God’s Word, the Bible, discusses God’s judgment and eternal Hell from beginning to end. In fact, the Bible tells us that most people who have ever lived will be there.
The wicked shall be turned into Hell, and all the nations that forget God. (Psalm 9:17)
And Jesus went about all Galilee teaching…(Matthew 4:23)… Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. (Matthew 7:13-14)

Jesus Christ (God in the flesh) taught more about Hell than any other person quoted in the Bible.
Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire… (Matthew 25:41)
And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in Hell. (Matthew 10:28)

So does this mean that if I'm wearing an eyepatch and a hook (aka..Pirate), then I can get into heaven?......
Matthew 5:29-30 If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.

No, because I UNDERSTAND HELL IS MADE UP AND DOESN'T REALLY EXIST.
You're not asking, you're preaching.
Nobody has ever provided any evidence that any gods, much less a specific god, exist. People believe in specific gods because of indoctrination from an early age, tradition, hallucinations, fear of torture (for gods sadistic enough to threaten it) and other similarly illogical reasons. But no gods exist in reality; these are all stories, created for people who were scared of the world long before we understood it. Now we have no more reason for these superstitions.

Eternal hell? Your final quote from scripture says to fear him who can destroy both body and soul in hell. How does eternal torment happen when both body and soul are destroyed?

hell is real but do you have the correct take on it?
I think you need to read some new concepts.
I like Emmanuel Swedenborg on this.
He says that the fire is burning desire... You can not literally burn a spirit....
Look into it... unless you are a fundamentalist then please don't look into anything or you will loose your faith and die.

I've been in Detroit, which is a bit south-east of Hell, and I've been in Oslo, which is south of the Hell in Norway.
