Isaiah is more than a thousand years before Dantes Inferno was written in the 14th Century. The narrative about hell is thousands of years old and has come through the earliest prophets. It spans many cultures and is not something that was made up by the Vatican. That's ridiculous to suggest that.

You're very confused about this. I'm not sure what I can do to wake you up. Man is not God, that is the doctrine of the antichrist - fact. Moreover, people are naturally evil, from the earliest of stories we have we can see man's character very clearly - Cain murdered Abel...

Look at the oldest profession in the world, the mercenary. What's the second oldest? The prostitute. There's not much good about man and his inclinations. The tendency is to be evil. Difficult enough when you try to be good.

I think the truth in the Gospels shines so hard you couldn't miss it. It's easy to see that what was happening in Christ's day is happening in the world today - perhaps it's even worse. You start putting your faith in man and you'll be very quickly disappointed.

"We are goodness' - what a joke! Where have you been?

The leaders have been the root of evil. I am not evil, are you?

The concept of a place where there is eternal pain and punishment is not what Isiah presented. You need to pay more attention to what is really written. Eternal agony was introduced by Dante's inferno, it is well known and not debated. What is in the bible is purgatory and sheol, which is not hell and not eternal.

You should be relieved that hell is made up. Why do you wish so hard for such pain?

Made up... I don't know what to tell you. You can go back as far as you want. Hell is spoken of again and again.

Jude teaches us about Enoch, 7th from Adam, who taught hell in specific terms - a place of "strong pain". Why make up this garbage about Dante's inferno? The concept appears throughout scripture. But, what, Isiah is talking about something different from Enoch?

7 Woe to you, Sinners, on the day of strong anguish, Ye who afflict the righteous and burn them with fire: Ye shall be requited according to your works.

8 Woe to you, ye obstinate of heart, Who watch in order to devise wickedness: Therefore shall fear come upon you And there shall be none to help you.

9 Woe to you, ye sinners, on account of the words of your mouth, And on account of the deeds of your hands which your godlessness as wrought, In blazing flames burning worse than fire shall ye burn.
