At a recent staff meeting, a manager who had just returned from a successful presentation to a convention of Chinese businessmen informed us that capitalism is still in its infancy in China; in fact, they don't even have any bankruptcy laws yet.
This kind of news is guaranteed to make a room full of accountants sit up straight -- and it did. "And," she added with a twinkle in her eye, "capitalism without bankruptcy is like christianity without hell."
It got the biggest laugh of the meeting.

There is nothing good about hell and going to hell. Here's what the Bible has to say:
Matthew 8:12 and Luke 13:25 total darkness, people weeping and gnashing their teeth
Mark 9:43, fire that shall never be quenched
Luke 16:23 people in hell are tormented
Let me ask 2 QUESTIONs:
1. If i believe in hell and do as the Bible says to be spared from it, and i fnd out when i'm dead that there is no hell.... will anything happen to me?
Now,
2. If you don't believe in hell and do not do as the bible says to be spared from it, then find out when you're dead that there IS a hell..... what will happen to you then?

I realize you are asking in a light-hearted way, but there is nothing fun, funny, or good about Hell. Most people...even many Christians...don't take Hell and Satan seriously. Hell will not be filled with cool people having one big party. With all my heart I believe that if somehow you could glimpse Hell for one minute it would change your life forever. Think of a place completely void of love and hope. Death...hell is endless separation from anything good.

sure there is any such place as hell... yet once you make the situation to seek for its which potential then you rather will learn that one and all hell potential is merely a hollow in the floor.... and not a place of inner suffering...........

I know your Having Fun and All (and it's Funny Too:)
but, there Really ain't nothing good about it.
You lose Control of your Soul when you descend into it.
You've probably heard about Insane Asylums of the Past, kinda like that, but Worse.
Sorry to be a Wet Blanket.
Nuff Said.
Thanks for Listening.

Hell is the Lake of Fire. What happens to you there? Well, when satan’s cast into it, he’ll be turned to ashes from within:
Ezekiel 28:18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
The above verse is what God will do to satan, the prince of Tyrus, which is one of satan’s titles.
Also, the fallen angles, the ones who left their place of habitation, heaven, and came to earth, not to be born of woman, but to seduce them, will go into the Lake of Fire.
So, cannot find anything good about it.

it'll be like shopping at walmart for EVERYTHING.
you can kill anyone at anytime and no one will stop you (of course it's a drag when it's your turn to get "killed")
you can watch others starve, bleed to death, and die in other horrible ways and take bets on how long they'll last. (of course it sucks if it's your turn to be tortured)
you can look at snuff films and child pornography and none of the "cool people" will be disgusted.
and those "hot" guys can hurt you in all the ways you like and don't like...but they're o-so-cute...
yep - you'll have a blast... a real blast...
