Personal Hell
My Hell consists of a slide-like shape which has bends and plateaus where the sinners are placed upon. This slide has three major levels; the first houses the sinners who sought to harm others by taking advantage of them when they were in a trusting state; stealing and cheating. The second level is for those sinners that caused harm to those surrounding them by physical means. The third plateau is at the bottom of the slide and is meant for sinners that hid in the shadows and preyed upon others weaker than themselves.
The first plateau is divided into three sections. The first of these sections is for the liars who used their words to harm others. This section is covered with a thick layer of maggots that crawl across the sinners bodies. The sinners are strapped to the floor of the plateau and must endure the writhing pain of the flesh eating maggots as they devour the sinners piece by piece. Their cries of pain are silenced by the hundreds of maggots that are festering in their mouths. As I cross the plateau one of the sinners manages to free his mouth from the maggots and call out my name. Walking towards the sinner I recognize this man as Bill Clinton, the former president who had lied about his affairs with his assistant. I begin to feel remorse for him as he tells me his story. I realize that he has been dishonest not only to himself but to a whole nation of people. I leave the fallen president to be devoured forever by the maggots that were created by his lies. Moving onto the second section of the first plateau I see where the thieves are kept. They are all running around with hordes of jewels and treasures that have been strewn across the plateau. As they run great winged beasts that are part bull, part eagle, swoop down and pluck individual sinners off the ground. As the great beast rises into the air the sinner is torn apart limb by limb just as the families were torn apart by taking money and possessions from them. As I hurry across this part avoiding

    Pelzer is the survivor of the third worst case of child-abuse in California's history, a case he vividly recalls in A Child Called "It". Here he tells of a childhood so horrific and, at times, so nauseating that while reading I found myself praying that there was a hell so Pelzer's parents could rot in it for all eternity. And not just hell, mind you, but a special place in hell designed specifically for people like this, a level of hell beyond anything Dante could imagine.…

    The image of hell doesn't sit to well on anyone's mind. No one associates the word hell with anything that would bring even slight joy. In Jonathan Edward’s sermon Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God, he puts forth a particularly strong image of Hell for his listeners. A image so strong that he had stop and continue midway through his sermon because his listeners were in such a frenzy. The words of one man leave on impact on readers for centuries to come.…

    Whether or not there is a doomed afterlife in which is called “hell”, everybody has their own perception of what their “hell” would be like. Rather your view of hell is eternal detonation or a place consisting of deathly flames and Satan’s head down in a bucket of ice, most people do not wish to be summoned into the depths of hell. However; Jonathon Edward’s sermon, “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God,” portrays briefly the vivid imagery of how hell was represented during the Second Great Awakening. In addition, Edwards aim was to teach his listeners about the horror of hell. Thus, Edwards’s dramatic interpretation of hell frightened the people who followed by God’s word and urges those who don’t to call upon Christ to receive forgiveness.…

    Inferno Contrapasso

    In Dante’s Inferno, sinners in Hell are punished according to the nature of their sin. Dante uses the concept of contrapasso, so that the punishment fits the crime of the sinners. Some sinners literally become the embodiment of their sins, while others become victims in the afterlife of the crimes they committed while living. In the Inferno, sinners aren’t just damned to Hell for eternity, but punished individually for the crimes that got them there.…

    Within this particular interactive oral, the idea of whether the hell in No Exit is represented or disregarded as a theological Christian hell was presented upon us. Throughout time, the Christian hell has been depicted as a fiery, unforgiving place, as shown in the bible verses, Matthew 13:49b-50, “The angles will come and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing teeth” and Revelation 19:20b, “The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur”. This theological hell has also been seen as place of separation from god and restlessness. At first glance, the hell in No Exit differs from a classic Christian theological hell in many ways.…

    Hell was created for the banishment of the sinners and nonbelievers, simply as an isolation tactic. But Obadiah made it a form of punishment for the disobedient, making them analyze their doings and primarily wrongs. Creating a taxing pressure on the soul, leading first to discouragement. Then the act of remorse understanding one's wrongdoings and their guilt associated with their actions. Creating a fake hope for Obadiah that his brother the leader of the righteousness, would forgive him for his actions. Providing him passage back to the kingdom of…

    narrator.The second thing that is connected to hell is the narrator's chamber. I believe that the chamber is the hell itself. This is because of it's eery and ominous presence. The third thing that symbolizes hell is the door. In the poem Poe wrote, "Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door— Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door". I believe that the door signifies the portal to the 9 circles of hell. In a book called Dante's Inferno there were nine places to punish people based on what they did on earth. There are three major circles that are connected to Poe himself. The three circles are the Circle of Lust, Circle of Gluttony, and Violence which is also connected to suicide. The…

The sinners are stuck in their location in hell where there punishment fit the crime that they committed. At the top of hell is where what Dante considered the least sinful people belonged. This is the home of the people who suffered from lust, and gluttony.…
