Hell may be just the realization that one missed out on a golden existence in
the next world.

GL,It is written in the Bible that only 144,000 people will be in heaven. Since
planet earth is 6,000 years old and say a dozen or two dozen people - from the
55 million - who die each year are let into heaven, there are still a few
available slots. However, I am perfectly content with life on this planet and
will leave it to others to contend for a spot in heaven.Mervyn
BTW, hell may also be the realization that one missed out on a good life on
this planet.
