People on Earth hate the word “Repent”.
Those in Hell wish they could hear it one more time!

Prove Hell exists first.
We'll wait…!
I don't care if you say repent. It may even be justified if it's a metaphor for self-awareness, like when we hurt someone we care about and hope to be forgiven. On the other hand, if you're asking me to repent for things that I find irrelevant, or with threats involving things that I understand to be fictitious, I'll find it frivolous. Maybe I'll try to explain why it makes no sense, or will just ignore it, depending.
I just don’t understand the whole system.
I see no reason to accept the capricious, misogynistic fuck that is Jehovah now, but the INSTANT i get inescapable proof, it’s too late to turn back? Why? Why is the offer for forgiveness terminated when I am? It’s the eternal soul that matters, right? Why can it only be forgiven when attached to a body?

The modern soul concept is not really from the Hebrew scriptures and not all denominations share the same doctrines, but I fully agree. Likewise: if there is no plausible evidence for the divine and humans cannot be taught what the deity actually wants (are only divided about it), why should anyone face any divine punishment.

You may be able to find other copies, here is a more complete description: an apocalyptic preacher (probably a parody of Hare Krishna) keeps harassing and following Tintin around uttering his frivolous Satanic accusations, so we see Tintin say that it's annoying. There also are a few earlier scenes with that preacher in the comic.

Oh, yeah, I remember that scene! Don’t worry, I have (and have read) all the Tintin comics, I just couldn’t see that you were referring to that specific scene.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
