  • Phoenix - pagan 1/2 of JPA says:

    Jews have no concept of Hell whatsoever.

    There is a place where souls are purified, and it’s not particularly pleasant, but the maximum time involved is 1 year.

    The whole eternal torment in a place run by an evil demi-god is a bastardization of both Zoroastrianism and the Hellenic afterlife.

  • ~Heathen Princess~ says:

    No the idea of tormenting and hell didn’t come into play until after about 530 BCE with the introduction of Greek philosophies.
