I smoke, drink, have sex with men, use (some) illegal substances, curse, don't believe in any god(s), and make fun of those worse off than me. What are the chances of me going to this hell thing y'all talk about?

Oh, I also go to a public university. That pretty much damns me immediately, right?

I know about Hell, MI. I live close to it. I've been there many times, but I'm talking about the fancy hell with poking sticks and fire and sh*t.

Gosh, you really got to love those fundies!

Sweeting, there is no Hell. Now, you may live at peace.

Of course you are. In fact everyone that dies goes to Hell...both the good and the bad. The question is, what is hell?
If you read the Bible carefully, you'll discover that "hell" is not a place of fire, brimstone, and eternal torment. Hell is from the old Germanic word, Hoelle, which means the common grave of mankind. In other words, Hell is the grave.
The Bible also speaks of "the dead know nothing at all." In other words, when you die, you cease to exist. No memories, no feelings, no concept of time. Your only hope is the future resurrection on Earth. Very few will go to heaven to rule with Christ. Many will come back and learn God's ways of living on Earth. Also with new perfect bodies, and much more improved living conditions, it should be a fun time.
So, what does the Bible mean "death and Hades are thrown into the Lake of Fire", in Revelations? Basically, the state of death and the use of graves will be permanently thrown away. Fire has always been used in the Bible as a symbol of permanent destruction. The simple people of those times could understand this better.
So yes, when we all die, we'll be in Hell. It's just that we won't even know that we died. This state of sleep will seem like just a second, should we become resurrected.

I don't condemn people to Hell. Only God knows what you will or not do in the future. But God doesn't want you doing those things too much because He knows you will wreck your life. You are too young to tell your future.
Look at some older people who lived like that in their youth. What or how are they now? Do you want your life to be like that? It will because no one is anybody special. You reap what you sow.

I don't understand why you would even ask this question, you claim not to believe in God, you list acts that are morally unacceptable. It would be unethical for me to judge and say you are going to hell, but if I where you I would reflect on my life and be prepared to make some hard decisions.

There are two Hells. One in Michigan and the other in Norway. Do you plan a trip to either of these locations?

Those are the only two Hells the existence of which can be verified.

You can redeem yourself if you enroll in a private university, say maybe Oral Roberts University, or Falwell's place... was it Liberty College? Anyway, go some place like that and you'll only end up in Heck.

Well I do all those things and get told that I'm going to hell all the time. Just do what I do, walk away laughing hysterically.

Nothing wrong with going to public university.

I hope you don't go to hell. The Bible says that you must Believe, Repent, Confess, and Be Baptized in order to be saved. I hope you will take an opportunity to do so.

As one dick to another... Not a chance in hell! God either loves us all, regardless of our actions, or if not, all of us including all these righteous Christians who judge others, but attend church will be right there in hell with us!
