The infinite suffering for finite sins is why I can't believe in Hell. I can understand some punishment for some people, even though I don't think it's actually neccessary, but It must be justifiable. Infinity is not
@SarahAndSamantha

That's my thought as well. Punishment and atonement seems reasonable. An infinite punishment is just torture for torture's sake.

@Pikachu that's the other thing. Torture isn't justifiable at all. There must be a better way

And i'd think an omniscient being might be able to think of one.
A bunch of bronze age zealots might not be able to though...
