The important point for you to understand is that Hell is God’s turf, and He thinks it is FABULOUS. No one forced God to come up with the sadistic torments of Hell: they were all His idea. Today many Christians like to pretend that if Hell is real, it will only be a temporary torment. Well, no, this is not what God teaches us. Hell is ETERNAL. This bothers us intensely, but we will just have to suck it up because GOD defines reality, not us.

Unfortunately, this is how religions gain converts. Mental tyranny. It's how the Romans kept their empire in the form of the Roman Catholic church after those evil Germanic hordes took over the Forum. Unfortunately, modern evangelists just copy the Roman model. And why not? There's money to be made from terrorising people.
*hears "Hell is FABULOUS", imagines a huuuuge gay club and an everlasting party, with Anna sitting alone in the corner, sipping her drink and muttering "this is sadistic, this is torment"*
The reality is defined by an invisible teapot, your god has not a thing to do with it. I know, trust me. I might not have a single proof not only of the nature, but even the existance of the teapot itself, but it`s the boss, sorry.

Sadistic streak? That would imply that most of the time he isn't sadistic. Bible God, especially according to Anna Diehl, is a sadist through and through with occasional lapses into appropriate behavior.

EPISODE 23 OF "INTER-UNIVERSAL POLICE" - TRANSSCRIPT:
OPENING SCENE - OFFICERS FLEEM AND XZUX ARE AT THE PRECINCT, DISCUSSING A FILE FOLDER IN FLEEM'S HAND:
Officer Fleem [looks at mugshot in file]: Is that the guy? What's with the beard and the robe? Except for the turban and the hair color, he could almost be related to that "Allah" fellow we also have a warrant out for.
Officer XZux [nods slowly]: Very true. Grexorx down in intel thinks it might actually be the same guy. He calls himself "God" or "Yahweh" these days, but it's the same MO, and the same area of operation.
Officer Fleem [turns a page in the file]: Earth? Cool, let's roll. We find the guy, book him, drop him off for processing at the Valhalla facility and then we can stop for donuts on the way back.
Officer XZux [turns towards the motor pool]: Sounds like a plan. Let's roll.
CUT TO OPENING CREDITS.
Howzat?

Just another reason why your god is a vile creature.

I just had to google “fabulous hell” and this came up:

But I somehow doubt that was what Anna had in mind.
the whole point of the "hell" paradigm is "worst location/situation you can imagine", the polar counterpoint to "heaven", which is construed as "best kind of existence you can imagine". any imagined entity which would think hell was "fabulous" would have to be irreparably mentally twisted, by definition. so, naturally, ms. diehl would worship it...
@gimel: or that. that's a possibility also. now pass the brain bleach, please, because that's not an image i want to retain...
"Hell is God’s turf"
...ah, so you're therefore admitting that Lucifer is actually the good guy in all of this, as he owns Heaven, and God only controls a patch of grass ?!
Thanks for destroying all your previous vitriol & misanthropy then, Annie! [/hyper-smartarse]

Hell is a hotly debated topic in theological circles. Is it real? If so, how long does it last? What's it's nature? What's it's purpose? If the Bible were clear on anything, Christians wouldn't be debating a myriad of issues (many going back centuries) with different interpretations.
No one forced God to come up with the sadistic torments of Hell: they were all His idea.
Making him nothing but evil and unworthy of worship.
Infinite punishment for a finite amount of "sin"? I reject your cosmic tyrant.
No, dear, it's temporary. The original language says "for a season" or "for an age".
You go give your Demiurge blow jobs, I'll worship Deity as AdiShakti, who is Universalist.
@Lauge
I would love to watch that show!
Anna is a very, very sick woman.
@Lauge, that sounds like a great idea! I'm thinking tie-in to the Guardians of the Galaxy movie or maybe the Hitchhiker's saga.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
