    What if there is only Hell, and the good people live out eternity getting revenge on the people that hurt them in life?

      The good people would probably either not want to waste their time hurting people or they would get tired of it very quickly(we ain’t all perfect). Like if Trump died I’d be elated but it’s because he would no longer be poisoning the world with his presence and not because I personally want to beat his face in for eternity.

      To be honest I think the hell I would want for these people would be a forced injection of critical thinking skills and empathy, with mandatory classes on all of the harm they did, so they could ultimately be their own punishment. At that point the most participation I would want would be my turn explaining how they people hurt me and the people I care about.

        The TV series Lucifer was basically like this. Sure, you go to hell, but your personal hell is reliving a moment that you could have grown as a person, and you don’t get out until you make the decision to grow.

        !Lucifer finally figured out that he’s in charge of hell, because he is the compassionate angel that can help get everyone out of hell.!<
