Why Hell is not real

Why Hell is not real

(short summary)
Eternal punishment for finite sins contradicts the idea of a just and loving God; infinite torment is disproportionate to human wrongdoing.

The existence of hell conflicts logically with God's attributes of omniscience, omnipotence, and omnibenevolence.

Hell has historically been used as a fear-based social control tool, suggesting it may be a construct rather than literal truth.

Hell reflects early human punitive justice and varies widely across cultures, indicating it’s not a universal or objective reality.

There is no empirical evidence for hell; near-death experiences do not support its existence.

Many religious traditions propose temporary punishment, annihilation, or universal salvation instead of eternal torment.

Hell may be better understood as metaphorical, representing separation from God or internal psychological states rather than a physical place.
