Do you believe in a God that Tortures people for eternity? [I Christian]

Some christians believe it but are troubled by a god that seems so evil.

Some christians delight in the thought of hell and cant wait to laugh at their enemies burning alive for eternity(these are called psychopaths)

And some christians try to not speculate what exactly hell or heaven are, or perhaps they have some interpretation that eases their conscience.

What do you think about the concept of eternal torture? Do believe it is the best form of punishment/justice that the omnipotent mind of a loving God could devise? Or maybe just the vindictive musings of a primitive warmongering society?

God doesn't torture anyone, people CHOOSE where they will spend eternity.

@curiosi can you choose to believe in something that you don't find convincing? if I dont believe in Jesus can I force myself to be convinced otherwise?

@Frenchmansfury You're right, can't just convince yourself, but we do choose if we want to be kind or not. I had a real problem with all of this myself. I gave up church, stopped listening to others and sought out answers on my own. They came. So I will leave you with that as I can't convince you as that wouldn't be faith.
