Why do people picture hell as this endless mass of naked…
“Why do people picture hell as this endless mass of naked bodies writhing in agony? That is like, so extreme, and, well, partial. Some people are a lot more uncomfortable when they are fully dressed than when they are naked (like underwear models), and for some, there is nothing painful than nothing. So next time the word Hell comes to mind, imagine people fully dressed, in horribly unfashionable items of clothing simply existing in a vacuum, together, yet alone, not speaking, or moving, at all, but aware. Try that for an eternity, and theres hell for you!”
