Like the Escapist forums, filled with arbitrary versus competitions, retarded polls on fake edgy topics and endless waves of "What would you do in a zombie apocalypse" threads.

Hell looks like to me what Earth looks like now, Illogical, stupid, driven by sex and greed. Religion controlling the stupid man and restraining the progress of our society. This world is my personal hell.

I am not emo, I am just don't like this illogical world that I live in.

Ah the only true hell is one wherein we cannot make fun of our fellow man.

Were I to hypothetically believe in hell, It'd be this:



Nothing. Just an endless black void. No torture or endless burning fire, sure, but nothing else either. You'd be conscious, but totally alone and deprived of any new sensory input whatsoever. No sights, no sounds, no smells, no tastes, nothing tangible to touch.

Just nothing.

Forever.

Think about it.

last year, when Ronnie James Dio died, hell changed.
He walked over towards Satan sitting on his throne, looked him in the eyes and said..
"Your in my spot."
After that, hell will look like this forever.

Assuming there was such a place, what do you think it'd look like?

Personally I imagine it as a Zdzislaw Beksinski painting. [http://www.beksinski.pl/]
Just like earth, I can't imagine something worse.

A room full of crazy justin bieber fans, and i am that unfortunate to be in the form of him(in this hell, obviously. I do not look like him one bit).

Or maybe the old fire and brimstone look.... But I like Dante Aligheri's depiction of hell in the Inferno chapter of the divine comedy to be the most... interesting, would be cool if it were only true(brace yourselves fools!)

I remember a thread just like this like a month or two ago. I'm going to say the exact same thing I said then.

According to the bible Hell is nothing but fire. There are no circles. Satan is not the king; he is stuck there just like everyone else.

If I believed in it, I would believe this.

It's basically like heaven but totally metal and less sanctimonious and boring.
Look, all I am saying is all our knowledge of Hell and Satan come from the big man. We don't get a second opinion.

Could be like fucking cake as far as the eye can see, how the hell do we know.

Since it won't let me embed on this forum, and many of you will avoidthe link for fear of MySpace cooties, lyrics below:

Welcome to my realm we?ll make you feel right at home
and reacquaint you with your deepest suffering.
We?ll pull your soul apart and fill the wounds with pain
'til you are nothing but hatred and misery.
And while the sycophants rejoice in paradise
you?ll be here and baptized in hellfire.
The only difference between the heavens and earth
is here you have no illusions.
The worst pain that a person can feel in their heart
is nothing where once there was love.
And he in his infinite mercy sees fit
to torture his children forever.
It?s far better to burn in hell than to serve
a tyrant demanding and cruel.
For what is courage but standing alone against god
almighty as he vents his wrath?

What is our crime? We will not obey!
What is our crime? We refuse to be slaves!
What is our crime? We do not believe!
What is our crime? We will never ever obey!

So fuck your commandments. We will not obey!
Fuck your cowardly son. We refuse to be slaves!
Fuck all your promises. We do not believe!
To hell with your love. Into the pit with God!

As He has done unto us so shall we do unto Him.
God shall suffer in the bowels of hell.
It's part of the 3 disc "album" (concept album about ideological conflict) and this is the beginning of the final act, followed by Storm the Walls, Aflame, The Sum of All Fears, The Rape of Heaven, and Cold and Dark Infinity.

I agree with the OP. Seriously, Beksinski is genuinely talented. Who knows? Hell might be that horrifying and beautiful at the same time.

I am sorry for you if the fact that I am not native to english and I have Dyslexia seems funny to you. It sure isn't for me.

Those paintings are haunting, OP, but also captivating. Thank you for sharing.

So, Hell is Earth after the politically correct and those who seek "equality" are done having their way?

I don't think defining hell serves any good, no matter how you try. First of all, I think we all agree that hell is suppose to represent the very essence of suffering and pain. If so, then none of us can imagine what that means because we never experienced it. Hell itself is an abstract concept without definable characteristics.

Now, if I were to try I would say that hell is ever changing. Just like heaven, only that it would always shift in response to the very pinnacle of suffering the sufferer could experience at any moment. Darkness for all eternity is simply not enough because at some point your mind will cope. You might go insane, or base your view of the world on darkness. So instead of that you'd have cold until you nearly used to it, then blazing heat, then whatever follows in the most agonizing, unpredictable pattern possible. Even when you feel self pity, hell could transform into a reminder that you are not by any means special by showing others suffer worse. When you think you are part of greater whole it smacks you down by elevating your suffering above all others.

If you can imagine hell... or define it, then I doubt you really considered the possibilities of how this world, or the next can make you suffer. You know... if it even exists.

paradise. seriously, this is what i think, mostly cause i'm a satanist so that just goes with my beliefs.

also, i don't see how you can be tortured for eternity if that's how it's supposed to be. just start a revolt against the armies of hell, you either win, get your own area and make it paradise, or you get destroyed, and oblivion is better than torture. what else could they do? send you to hell? or hell 2.0?? OH SHIT!!!! seriously, you're being tortured for a while, you'll get used to the pain, so pain won't effect you, nothing can harm you cause you're an immortal soul, so just do whatever at that point. you've got an eternity to do this, so no need in rushing.
