Hell was the goddess of the pagans in Europe. When people died they were cremated at the time in what was called hells fire...
Hell is nothing more than christian propaganda. Pagan symbols were very popular and could not be removed. So christian theologians chose to incorporate them in their own works and reframe them.
The choice is simple: do you want to go to heaven? Or burn in hells fire?
The christmas tree, the easter bunny are very blatant examples of this, but so is the whole ascension and ressurection business. You could possibly say there was a christianity for the common believer and that there was one for the insiders.
The idea made me think though... There are 4d STS aspects in hell though, in the sense that it's all oriented about the sinners. Go figure, this whole instititution and spiritual organisation set up just for punishment. Who is more important in hell? Satan or the sinner? Who determines what goes on in there?
