Hey everyone, check this out. Heaven is actually hotter than Hell. Isaiah 30:26 says in Heaven "the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days." So basically, you are looking at heaven being in the neighborhood of 977F (525C for our metric friends). Now Rev. 21:8 talks about the lake of brimstone (sulfur). "...lake which burneth with fire and brimstone..." That means the sulfur has to be at or below it's boiling point which is 833F (445C). There you go. Hell is actually cooler than Heaven. I thought this was a funny, if totally useless, factoid and I thought I'd share.

Aah, your Devil's science has made religion just that much funnier. Well done, rookie.

I've seen that, & gone to someone who actually reads the Bible. Turns out that verse is about the tribulation.
Sort of causes more problems, though, when you think about the fact that the tribulation is supposed to last for 7 years.

Well, if the pressure in hell is great enough, the boiling point of sulfur would be a lot higher, allowing it to be a lake and the temperature hotter than heaven. It'd just require the use of the Clausius-Clapeyron equation. |

The centre of the earth should have a much higher pressure. I'm not sure it'd still be enough to keep sulphur liquid, though.

How does the 7 day thing relate to Heaven. Forgive me for my biblical noobishness

[rapture ready poster]WHAT? HEAVEN CAN'T BE HOTTER THAN HELL! THAT DEFIES THE PURPOSE OF HELL! GOD CAN'T MAKE A MISTAKE! THE EVIL ATHEISTS ARE PERSECOOTIN' US! [/rapture ready poster] |

If I remember correctly, gravity at the center of the Earth is almost nil. True. I guess that would make hell a nice floaty place, kinda like heaven. The pressure is apparently around 360 Gpa, which I suspect is enough to keep just about anything from boiling and the temperature is about 7000K. (just wiki Earth if you really want to know) |

If I remember correctly, gravity at the center of the Earth is almost nil. Gravity at the center of earth is zero, but that doesn't mean there isn't a shitton of pressure (shitton, totally a scientific unit). |

I prefer a metric shitton, to just a plain shitton.
