No. I personally believe it is very negative for yourself and others to have a negative existential framework from which you base life whatever that may be. To me hell is a metaphor for negative feelings you have about life like fear of death if you don't succeed or fear of punishment for expressing your sexuality. I think the only things that exist in the long run are good things as we all go forward on our journey towards evolving into god.

Where have all the INTJ jokes gone?

Yes of course hell exists. That's where all INTJs go when they die :D.

Sigh!

Where have all the INTJ jokes gone?

INTJs are meant to be the 'buts of all MBTI jokes'.

Does it get any better than the INTJ descriptions to poke fun at?

No, I don't believe in hell.

I think some people want to believe hell exists because they want to make sure evil people and sinners who don't beg for forgiveness are done justice.

How many existentialists does it take to screw in a light bulb?
One. But he must acknowledge that he alone chose to do it, and was not coerced by the light bulb at all.

While I don’t believe in the literal idea of an eternal hell, I think the conception of heaven and hell has implications for the types of social structures we create and are willing to accept. It is the ultimate “haves and have-nots”. We have an unconscious expectation of favor and extravagance for the elite and an unconscious acceptance of deprivation for the masses. If God’s perfect plan is to create a version of this that goes beyond any human comprehension in which the righteous have "no more sorrows" and the wicked have "weeping and gnashing of teeth", then why not use the wisdom he has given us to start the process now? It brings rise to ideologies like the Prosperity Gospel that says “I am rich because I am honored by God for my goodness”. This rationale must logically come to the conclusion that those who are poor are not honored by God and do not possess this same goodness. This idea of simultaneous excess and want has us pursue heaven knowing that each moment our mind could wander over to that loved one who is in hell, and so we will change focus back to our paradise. I wonder if that projected future makes it more possible for us to do the same thing now with human suffering and as a result create a shadow of our conceptions of hell.

All heaven is is boring harmony. At least Hell would be more fun due to strife and conflict, just like arguing is more fun than agreeing.
