Nice job,
I wanted to add, there is no exclusion between science and religion. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Basic science.
Good/Bad
Heaven/Hell
Matter/Anti-matter
Who is to say that God did not create the Big Bang? Thank you for the reconnection.

I am still not getting what you mean exactly. If you know God is good and all loving and all that fun stuff, where does the refusing to accecpt God come in? If you think God is good and all loving why would you refuse him? I think I know what you mean but I dont' want to type all that much to explain. Anyway I guess will all find out sooner or later.

...believe it or not there are people who are so prideful and Id say even hateful that they will deny God always.
Because the 'controllers' have decided to give us a new Religion to replace 'their' old ones...Some think that the New Age Religion is it !...could be 10% in some areas and more or less in others....

I also think the Bible is 10% truth and 90% lies that were manipulated by people in power when it was created to control us by guilt and fear. It works wonderfully but people are starting to wake up because the age of Pices is over.

You're not arguing whether there is or isn't a hell, nor are you arguing who or what goes to hell (very grey area). Instead you chose to ask why there is a hell. That seems adventurous.

So where do these statements come from, and from which parts in the bible did you derive these ideas from.
I love it how religions can develop such lenghty explanations about these topics, which so differ from what the bible actually says. Perhaps it does say something like this in some texts, or can be interpreted in this way. But i'm sure there would be other countless interpretations for that same section, and then countless contradictions of that same topic in other sections.

From my understanding of the theology I have learned in death all things are made known to you. Here on earth it is impossible to choose God or deny God fully as you do not know God fully. HOwever it is in death that you know the true face of God (Which I hold to be the God of Abraham (which is the Islamic, christian and Jewish God)) After fully knowing God in death if you choose out of your own pride to deny him stell yet because you refuse to accept een though you know all these things then you ase sent to hell by your own free will. In death you do not loose your ability of free will.

By The Way, Buddha was NOT a God, and Allah IS the same God as Yahweh, it actually just means "God" in Arabic.
