    Hell is hell, a place for unbelievers (those who believe Christians go to hell PLEASE REFRAIN FROM POSTING). Torment, eternal suffering.

    But as there will be variety of rewards/levels in heaven, will there be corresponding punishment/levels in hell?

    Will Hitler or Stalin or Osama suffer greater in hell than a 5 year old Moslem killed in the sunami?

    Thanks.

    Dr. Bob, I thought we just did this topic:
    http://www.baptistboard.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi/topic/3/2651.html?
    OP was by Phillip who said:
    He was using the term "levels" but it was the same idea as yours -- different degrees of punishment.

    Dr. Bob do you think a 5 year old boy has reached an age of responsibility? I'm not trying to sidetrack the issue here,please don't get me wrong.Perhaps someone a little older with some understanding would be more appropriate?

    And now you have piqued my interest. I suppose I will have to go do a study of this.
