Discussion The idea of a possible hell

[sellfish]

I have been thinking about this as my ctb date approaches. I have caused a lot of pain to many people in my life, and dying would be the absolute worst possible pain that I would inflict from a 'selfish' attempt to end my pain quicker than trying to get better or live a terrible life. What is this actually backfires and after dying I would suffer terribly. I can't explain how that would be possible since I dont really believe in the christian descriptions of hell, but a different kind of hell. How would you describe it if there was such a thing?
I know there are people who commit suicide and they are in horrible pain but have been good people. I am asking in the case where I person like myself, acted horribly and treated life and everything badly and have ended in a bad position because of their wrong doing so the easiest way out would be suicide.

Read Dante...and don't belive anything ! Nice poetry, but bullshit....

The wood of the suicides int he 7tth circle of hell:

I look at it this way, this was gods plan for me being right here. This was his plan really? Fuck him, and his plan.

People are just imperfect beings. I don't think you're alone and you don't deserve death because you've been a dickhead on more than one occasion.

Youll be ok, hell doesnt exist except for the mind of people who is alive, when you die its over, no more sufering or thinking, no more nothing, its the end of what makes yourself being you, your consciousness

The fact is we don't know anything for 100% certain. But if hell exists,it certainly not moral to send someone there no matter what those Christian fanboys say. God has no right to do that..(if God and hell did exist) He put us here. He doesn't have a right to create us then punish us for not being perfect in his eyes. Additionally,different people have different mindsets. Brain damage can effect personality. It's very possible that if spirits exist that they don't determine personality. That means bad people are bad because of their brain and body. That also means that punishment of mentally challenged or those that are abused is beyond unfair of God to do. That's setting aside the fact that eternal hell would be evil of God to allow.


I think if there are spirits that the astral realm makes more sense.

You mean I am not in Hell NOW? What could possibly be worse?

Hell is more about how you feel now rather than afterlife. If afterlife exists, the hell is overfilled and you will be on a waiting list lol.
I prefer Vikings' view in this case: "suicide was seen as an alternative way out of unbearable life-situations, basically due to a less dogmatic belief-system and a higher value set on honour". Though, according to Scandinavian view, we will never be in Valhalla.
