Do people still believe in Hell?

[The Original Series]

God can't be "wrong." God is God. If God decides you're going to hell because you're a rotten sinner, well, what are you gonna do about it?

The Klingons had the best way of dealing with so-called "Gods": They exterminated them!

Q'plah!

Hell is other people. And any Star Trek that's not TOS.

And yet you just quoted DS9..

I particularly loved The Last Battle and anyone who doesn't like the Narnia books-is heartless, evil, without scruple, and/or needs their tongue removed.

Just as Jesus intended.

It is permissible to argue against Jesus H. Christ, the con-man, on this BBS!

He wasn't arguing against Jesus, and I wasn't saying you can't argue against Jesus, so I don't know what this comment has to do with anything in my post other than mentioning the word "Jesus."

...Jesus...

Hell was actually the flame trench at pad at LC-39A during STS-124. Nasty.

IIRC Lewis was actually pretty prudish when it came to sexual things much to the chagrin of his more secular readers, and believe me I would have heard it if he was a pedophile.

Oh and his wife died very painfully of bone cancer which is I think really makes those sort of statements even more offensive.

Dude, it was corrected.

Pages ago. Chill.

You make no sense. What did JC the Charlatan intend? Say what you mean. Mean what you say.

Suburban douchebag!

Idiot troll gone.

Hell ain't a bad place. Hell is from here to eternity.

What on earth would how his wife died have to do with a discussion of his sexuality?

Because it affected him greatly?

 

[Tora Ziyal]

Sorry, I don't see the connection.

CS Lewis deeply loved his wife and wrote a book reflecting on her death. Such men don't have "alternate" sexual interests.

I wish that were true, and it probably is, more often than not. But to make it a blanket statement... Nope! Unfortunately, human beings are more complicated and inconsistent than that.

"Unfortunately" and yet, often wonderfully, fortunately.

 

[Tora Ziyal]

Yes, often wonderfully/fortunately! But not in the original context here.

This. Human beings are incredibly complex. Get 10 people in a room, ask a question, and you'll get 11 different opinions.
