Interesting, this thought has occured to me in the past.
Maybe atheists and nonbelievers who had "decent" lives get to goto eternal blankness and death....
and then tyrants like bundy, manson, osama, obama, hitler, etc, goto Tartaroo or other "depths" of Sheol.
Mmmm, interesting to ponder indeed.

Do you watch some NDEs and wonder why some folks are just in a "holding" type area in darkness, and some folks are straight in the flames? There are different levels of torments. They still aren't present with Christ, they aren't covered in His blood, but they are not all the same experience or levels of torment.

What about the people who die and don't experience the typical NDE? I've read stories of those who passed and experienced "nothing"; if you can conceptualize that idea of nothing. The writer would make note of feeling the same emotions: love, being at peace, feeling one with the universe, etc. However, there was no flashy white light at the end of the tunnel, no flames of Hell, no reunion with dead relatives, no meeting a personal God.
I find them fascinating, but at the end of the day, can't we all just admit that we don't know what happens when we die?
