HELL

‘There seems to be a kind of conspiracy to forget, or to conceal, where the doctrine of hell comes from. The doctrine of hell is not “mediaeval priestcraft” for frightening people into giving money to the church: it is Christ’s deliberate judgement on sin...We cannot repudiate Hell without altogether repudiating Christ.’
Dorothy L Sayers in Randy Newman, Heaven, p.26.
