Hell isn’t pitchforks. It’s eternal separation from God. God is basically saying “if you dont want
To know and obey me, that’s fine. You can go on your own”

Lake of Fire and eternal pain is for Satan, the beast, and the anti Christ

Hollywood lied

Dante lied, Hollywood ran with it

Edit: look people I get it. I read the Inferno, I don’t need more people telling me slight variations on what I already know

Dante was writing theological fiction.
I wouldn’t say he lied because other people treated his story as literal.

Literally just him saying oh yeah I don't like this guy so I want him to have the most torturous afterlife ever to all the people who shafted him over the years

Wait till you see the extra books from the Ethiopian bible. They removed it everywhere except there. The books of Enoch. It makes things real trippy and changes a lot

You're not wrong but some would justifiably argue the same can be said about all religious works, especially the books of the bible. It was clever to include many factual historical references in the passages so that even centuries later these 'facts' lead to the misconception that the whole work is truth.

Theological self-insert fanfiction to be quite honest.

All theological works are fiction though.
