This discussion of Hell and Jesus is very contradictory! Obvious to some. One way I like to think of a belief in Jesus is that he gave the people in society 2000 years ago away to break from the traditions of religions requiring sacrafice and the focus on hell. Whether Jesus is actually Gods son or not, I think the beief in Jesus made some significant changes for the world. I don't think the New Testament has the focus of Hell as the Old Testament does. But sounds like religions are not letting go of the power of the threat of hell. I think this sight is great - liberating.
