Serious contemplation of a question like this could lead to a belief change
I know mine sure did.
I still believe that divine infinite mind has eternal love manifest within all of creation, But I now believe that hell is self-created and was perpetuated by certain church leaders out of ignorance, and served as propaganda designed to control population through fear.
