Okay, seeing as we are in hell:
An atheist arrives in hell and is told by the devil that he has to choose 1 of 3 rooms that he will spend all eternity in. Peeping in the first room he sees fellow atheists standing on their heads, thousands of locusts buzzing around them. Aghast he moved on to the second room where evil atheists were again standing on their heads, this time with multitudes of frogs falling from the ceiling. Finally he moved on to the third room where he discovered atheist sinners standing waist deep in human sewage, though sipping hot tea from fine china cups.
Thinking for a moment, he chose to spend all eternity in the final room, at which point the devil declared loudly, "Okay guys, tea break over, back on your heads!"

All thoughts of the Devil being some kind of superintendent directing the affairs going on in the eternal damnation of the lost, are the results of his own propaganda to mislead human beings.

Originally posted by wolfgang59KellyJay once said that he would continue to love Jesus even if he was being tortured in burning agony forever and ever. It would be hypothetically interesting to look in on KellyJay after a few billion years of this kept-alive-to-be-incinerated punishment and see if he did, indeed, still love his torturer, and why.

Or it could just be that the bible itself is a collection of superstitious misconceptions with no support from rational thought.
Assuming stuff off the top of your head won't help you to know which is which.
Flight headed junk like this won't help you to figure it out.

Appears you are the one making assumptions, hey?
And not junk, a joke. (And not even one of my making).

But they get killed in doing so because their heart is wrong.
Sure, you can come to the Bible with the intention of getting away from God.

Maybe. Let's see what else you say here.

I see. Just having a lighter moment.
Well, if you want to laugh, believe me, there is also a joy of laughing that you have found reality.
Something like Psalm 126 has been my enjoyable experience:
"When the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion, We were like those who dream.
At that time our mouth was filled with laughter and our tongue with singing."
My cheek muscles hurt with grinning, literally. When I found out God's purpose and salvation, I had deep joy and real laughter probably for the first time.
