if hell is a real place, why can’t we harness the heat from it for our energy uses instead of using oil?
do ya think it would be less of a pollutant, or would all those burning souls let off even worse green house gases?
wasn’t sure if where this question should go… science & technology or here… but i figured here cuz it would be close to creationism, yes? and that doesn’t believe in science…

We can ask satan. You know how much the devil likes a profit. But you know he has friends in big oil, right? Not to mention very very powerful republicans.

the government would never allow it–you can’t tax hell, just tax the hell out of people through gas prices

Some are taught in church that Hell is a place of suffering where evil souls go and Heaven is where good people go.
This is not a bible teaching:
Did Abraham die and went to a ever-burning hell? Surely idol worshippers would not be in heaven. Yet, Abraham was with his forefathers, Scripture says.
Joshua 24:2 - "Terah, the father of Abraham, and the father of Nachor; and they served other deities," Genesis 15:15. "And you shall go to your fathers".
King David was a righteous king he must of gone to heaven? NO?
Acts 2:34 - For David did not ascend into the heavens.
When Lazarus died Jesus spoke to Martha that he was in Heaven? NO?
John 11:11 - Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.
Besides Jesus there must of been some one righteous enough to go to heaven? NO?
John 3:13 - No one has ascended into heaven except he who descended from heaven, the Son of Man.
When Jesus kingdom arrives he promised the good will go to heaven. NO?
Matthew 5:5 - Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
Surely people who are holy as saints and priests will rule with Jesus in heaven? NO?
Revelation 5:10 - You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth."
finally, the second death (from Rev 21:8) is a location for bad people to suffer in a fiery place. NO?
Rev 20:14 - And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
-The Second death is a judgment not a location. Jesus is promising that those who are not wicked will be resurrected and never die again. (Rev 20:15)
Verdict: Death is Hell. It’s the grave where we are like in a sleep like state but have no conscience thought. Waiting to be brought back to life if we have followed Jesus teachings.

Funny question but there is no hell, no heaven either…..not even a Limbo

Who is going to go to hell to harness this energy.
Hell is a spiritual place with no connection to our world.

Maybe because no one who gets into hell ever gets out.

Because as many that would to argue with me on this one…
Hell isn’t on earth.

Do you believe in hell? I think it is just a metaphore, even burning for ever couldn’t be as bad as just becoming nothing. Anyway, even if hell were real it’s not likely God or even Stan (sorry - Satan) would let you dig up his lair + then, wouldn’t you try and save the poor, burning souls.
People do use hydroelectric power by digging deep down into the earth’s core (a bit like hell I guess.)

you might be using it to tan your skin every time you go to the beach.
think about it. wouldn’t it be something if all the people that said there is no such place as heaven or hell found out that the sun is hell and they saw it every day of their lives??????

Hell is the grave or "a pit"
The lake of fire is what is hot. This is the second death.
