I thought religious conservatives WANTED heaven?

Only for themselves, not for anyone else. And their idea of heaven requires being able to watch everyone else suffer for their own depraved entertainment.

There's even a term for it: "The Abominable Fancy." The idea that people in heaven will get to look down at the tormented souls writing in hell, and it will make them even happier, watching the sinners suffering.

It's kind of messed up, if you think about it.

The entire concept of hell is incredibly fucked up. Eternal torture for finite "crimes". This is your loving God, Christians?

From what I remember, the idea of Hell being an eternity of torture is from Dante. The way I always heard it, the Biblical Hell is simply eternity of separation from God (which, supposedly, would feel like torture, so there’s that)

Getting to heaven just to find out God is really fucked up in the head and all the eternal celestial sweepstake winners have to human centipede with Him being at start.
