This is nothing... Wait until you see the torturous hell He has in store for the billions of people who somehow got it wrong.

What? You wouldn't treat your children that way?

I'm trying to imagine what my child could ever do to make me want to send them to a dungeonous hell so they could burn for eternity. Since I can't think of ANYTHING, I'd like to hear other people's criteria for buring your own children? How about if they didn't believe in you? What if they thought someone else was their father? Would that make you want to cause the little bugger to fry in hell for eternity?

While it's probably an over-talked about topic and there was probably a better (more polite) way to phrase it, I do think it's legitimate a question.

I also find it hard to reconcile all the suffering in the world with a loving god. Why is one family saved in a tornado, while another suffers tragic loss? The saved family often thanks God. What this this say to the other family?

He doesn't send us to Hell, we choose it by not choosing Him. God can not allow sin into heaven so those who aren't made perfect can't stay for eternity.

I don't personally think people will burn for eternity in hell, all hell is, is complete seperation from God.
The torment is in seeing God, then being forced to leave.
