Sometimes I just find it fascinating that otherwise intelligent, rational people in the 21st century still unquestionably bow down before ancient pagan-derived mythology of the devil and hell and heaven, crucifixion, human sacrifice etc.
Hell actually started out being nothing more than death.You die and rot in the ground - that was hell.Later on it was changed to a place that burns the fat off of your soul before so you can be admitted into Valhalla (heaven). Then, someone thought that even wasn't scary enough so they changed it into an eternal place of damnation to really grab all the gullible people by the balls.
Really, if you study mythology enough you can see how all the religions are really just derivatives of each other.
