This is related to justice. I personally don't believe in "eternal damnation", but I do consider it likely that there is some punishment for bad deeds.

Whom is god prepared to send to hell?

Once you are born into the world and baptized, you are clean. God gives all a "free will" he can't make you be good or bad so if you do many bad things and go against his word, he might decide to send you to hell. But when you're born you have a clean plate God would never automatically send someone to hell.


Opinion that opposes an official religious view?

Christianity: if you do not accept Jesus as your savior you deserve hell...yet god is a just, loving god my opinion: it is not just to send someone who is a good person but does not believe in god to hell forever. even the worst sinner in the world does not deserve this cruel punishment. A murderer may deserve to be murdered himself, but even he doesn't deserve eternal torment of his soul in a burning lake of fire...( just my opinion :)...)


Can Satan be loved by someone?

I do not believe so, since he is in hell. Hell is the absence of God, and since God is love, I would guess no one can love in hell. Thus he would use people instead of love (use is the opposite of love). Now lets say Satan can love; why would he want to? Loving is an act of God.

Do you get tortured in hell if you are a satanist?

All who go to hell will be in torture. Many persons believe that there are degrees of torture in hell. A satanist would probably be subjected to severe torture because he was a helper to Satan.Catholic AnswerHell is eternal separation from God, it is willful rejection of God and His Goodness. The two pains of hell are first, the pain of having rejected God and our only real fulfillment; the second is the pain of sense, with which we are tortured for eternity. Please understand that this is not something God willed or created, His permissive Will allows hell as the only option of an all loving God for one who has rejected that love. The pain and the torture are entirely of our own devising. A Satanist is someone who has directly rejected God by choosing to serve the first angel who rejected God - this is willful rejection of God and His love, everyone in hell is tortured for eternity, including the Satanists right along with Satan.


Will you go to hell for sinning?

If you do not repent, Yes, you will go to hell for sinning. But if you repent and believe that Jesus Christ is Son of God and Son of Man, that you need a Savior, and that he died for the sins of the world, Then you will not go to hell. You will spend eternity with God in Heaven. ANOTHER VIEW: No. Any God that is a loving creator would not damn his creation to an eternity of suffering. What would be the point of that? A loving God would forgive his/her earthly children's transgressions, just as we are expected to be forgiving of each other.


Does god love every person on earth?

Can drinking alcohol send you to hell?

No, not a literal hell, because hell only exists as part of Christian mythology, God, heaven & hell do not exist, as convenient as the concepts are to some. On the other hand, yes, excessive drinking can lead you to a hell of sorts. Moderation is the key!
