And by the way, they don't have this hell problem over there. They didn't have the pleasure of meeting Jesus ; that's responsible for our present day conception of hell. To them, the soul lives on eternally, but reincarnates, around and around, until enough lessons are learned to earn 'em heaven. But I guess that's a kind of hell. This life kinda proves that. More of them would be a real and living hell. Maybe worse than fire. I don't know, cuz I've never burned and burned forever and ever, without being cremated.
But according to the person that offered the OP of this thread, I guess I might have an opportunity to find out. Maybe not, cuz he don't believe in hell. He's like a JW.

The article is not about the existence of hell but whether or not the soul is indestructible.
Actually there's two main aspects. One is the imprecise translation of the word hell in the English bible. The other is whether the soul is indestructible or not. I think most Christians nowadays know that hell can refer to Hades or Gehenna, I mean I used to hear it sometimes in non-JW denominational churches.
