Sparta - Hello! Read between the lines, I realize that. Not for your kind means rational thinking non-religous human beings. Take a hint!

Thomas L - That was a bunch of nonsense. I hope you don`t think listing philosophy as a source give you any credit. You said that God cannot seperate from himself and God cannot be in hell, as if he is restricted from doing so. If that`s the case then God is not omnipotent. You`re no philosopher give me a break.

By definition, he'd have to be. He doesn't have to do anything there, though...

Ps. 139: 8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.
This does not mean God has much to do there, only that He is the master of all.
1 Peter 3:19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;
Other versions translate this passage as to mean something like "God proclaims His justice to those in hell".
James 2: 19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
The final hell, or eternal lake of fire, does not exist yet, this occurs after the final judgment at the end of the millenium where Satan is cast into the lake of fire along with his followers.
Rev. 20: 10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
What exists now is a spiritual hell, or a spiritual paradise. After the resurrection and all are given physical bodies that cannot die, then will the physical heaven or hell exist.

No. Hell is the only place that God is not in. In fact, I believe that that's part of what will make hell so bad because you'll be cut off from God for eternity. Everything will be erased from the minds of those in heaven because there will be no sadness in heaven and you can't remember hell and the ones you loved that went to hell and not have sadness.

Human concept of hell references a nonexistent place. The really hellish places are those humans create for themselves on Earth and in their minds and emotions.
God as the absolute and transcendent reality is the opposite of "hell," that is, the opposite of earthy craziness.
But since the entire universe is the manifestation of God, there is some God in all things, but in some things not much. Material things are God heavily disguised and no longer look like God. You have to look really close and through the dense and hellish materials to find the God in them.

Your question should be redefined - you are asking a argumentative illogical fallacy.
God is omnipresent, all powerful, all knowing, etc. in a LOGICAL sense.
For example, God is perfect, but God cannot make 2 + 2 = 5, for instance. Because that is against God's logical nature.
Hell is a place where those who are utterly separated from God rest. God cannot be in hell, for the reason that God cannot separate from himself. God is omnipresent, in a logical sense.

Hell is defined as that condition where a person cuts him or herself off from communion with God. I would say that since God exists in every point in space and time, then God also exists in the place in our lives that we call Hell.

Someone has to be in charge of Hell. But right now there is nobody there. So God does not go there. Maybe someday he will beget another son to take charge of Hell. When you are all by yourself, you have to do everything by yourself.

No. Hell is defined as a place without God; the only place without God.

No. Hell is described a lot of different ways, but a good way to think of it is as a place outside of God's grace.

Hell is not a physical place. I would define it as separation from God. Therefore, you are not aware of God in hell, even though He is present there. Separation from love and isolation is hell.

Using that type of thinking, Hell would be IN God....
I don't consider omnipresent to mean physically everywhere
but mentally aware of everywhere.....
