Hell

1. A place or state of being of pain and suffering, sometimes also called Earth. 2. A afterlife believed in by Christians to be the place were Non-Christians souls go after death to suffer eternally for not worshiping their god; regardless of whether one leads a virtuous life and is a good person. They tend to go into a great deal more detail about Hell then Heaven in their literature. Hell is often pictured as being populated by lost souls, demons and fallen angels, chief of which is Satan. Hell is often seen by Christians as a place of torment and fiery pits of wailing sinners isolated from their god’s love. (The word is taken from the Norse Goddess Hel even though it has nothing to do with the Christian version of Hell.) 3. Hell is also a mild cuss word.
