Hell is true. It is the final destination of all who are damned. There is suffering here day and night. The damned ones will burn and burn for all eternity. Worst of all you will be separated from the presence of God. Only the Children of Light, God's Chosen Ones, will be saved from this fate in the afterlife. But in some cases, for me, hell also exists here on earth. Really. There is hell on earth. Poverty. Hunger. Greed. Jealosy. War. Hate. Lust. Selfishness. Suffering. Diseases. Corruption. Discrimination. Terrorism. Self Righteousness. Heartbreaks. You name it. Now you may see, there is a figurative, or maybe it can be a literal, "hell" in this earth.
I am fond of saying hell. When I am frustrated, angry, lonely or dissapointed about a certain problem, I will find myself saying,"Hell!". It is really part of getting over with that frustaration, anger, loneliness or dissapointment. And later, I can get over with that problem and return to my old self and smile. It reminds me that the problem is not a "hell". You see, as a Christian there is no hell for you. Either in the afterlife or now in your life in this world. Like me, you encounter problems in this life. Health problems. Money problems. Identity problems. School problems (especially those "hellish" math problems). Girl problems. No matter what problems, big or small, when you are a Christian God will help you overcome those problems and you will find yourself still happy. It will never be "hell". That is the significance of Christ's death and ressurection. You may experience problems, but you will never ever experience hell (in the afterlife or in this world) in your life if you are a Christian. That is the truth.
Don't believe me. Read the Bible, it will scare the hell out of you.

I don't share your religious views, but I definitely agree with what you say about hell on earth. Regardless of our individual religious beliefs, I think we need to all work together to make the secular world a better place.
