The love being expressed is not toward the one being damned, but toward the
rest of society. It is impossible to have a utopian community of love if
there is even one single wicked person living freely in it. Just look at
the world and what a mess it is in.
Peace be with you. David Miller.

What do you think the judgment of hell is all
about?
DAVEH: I've heard you make that comment before,
DavidM. But I'm not sure why you think that way if you
believe in the traditional concept of hell being a place of punitive torture.
Doesn't the harshness of the pain and suffering caused by the literal
lake of fire and eternal worms believed by many Christians seem to go beyond
the punishment of love? I thought it was considered by most
Christians to be retribution, rather than reformation....which would more
likely stem from love, I would think.
From
the LDS perspective of hell though, your comment would make perfect
sense.
The Lord is a man of war. What you seem to fail to understand
is that killing the wicked is a loving thing to do. What do you
think the judgment of hell is all about? It is the greatest act
of love that God could ever practice toward mankind. Some are too
selfish and wicked to recognize that, kind of like a child who thinks that
the parent who spanks his child hates his child.
Peace be with you. David Miller.
