While my wife is recuperating from knee surgery, we've been watching a lot of TV. We have Netflix and there are a lot of Christian movies or faith based movies as they are called.
I noticed something. There is rarely if ever, any mention of burning in "hell" for not accepting Christ which is what most of "regular Christianity" believes.
One last night took place at a Catholic school. Rosie O'Donnel(of all people) is playing a nun. Here is a basic excerpt:
Rosie: OK, do any of you have any questions about your lessons?
Tommy: (stands up) Is it true that if we don't believe in Jesus we are going to burn in hell forever?
Jimmy: (stands up) My cousin doesn't believe! Is he going to burn in Hell?
Bobby: (stands up)My uncle John doesn't believe, is he going to burn in hell? I don't want that, I love my uncle."
At this point, the standing kids start crying and the ones at their desks start moaning, wailing, and putting their heads down.
Rosie(the Nun) shouts, "Now stop it! NO ONE is going to burn in hell"
Tommy: "Then is the Bible wrong?"
Rosie: "Uh...hmmm...No the Bible is NOT wrong!"
A couple of kids start to say, "but you just said..."
Rosie: "I know what I said (the bell rings) ...and we'll discuss it when you all come back on Monday"

In the movie, it was never brought up or mentioned again. Why was I not surprised...

Lazarus Short

If you want to watch a movie with people literally falling into Hell, watch Little Nicky.
Socrates taught Plato.  Plato taught Aristotle.  Aristotle tutored the son of Philip of Macedon.  This boy grew up to become Alexander the Great, largely by slaughtering a lot of people.  That's philosophy.

Jesus spoke the Truth.  He blessed the poor.  He healed the sick.  He even raised the dead.  He died on a cross for us, lived again, and came back long enough to tell us to love one another.  That's religion.

YHVH = Behold the Nail, Behold the Hand = Jesus

I was referring to movies made by christians to bring people to Christ or strengthen the faith of believers.
Even "Ghost" had the bad guy dragged to hell by demons.
-It wasn't that I wanted to see people go to hell, I thought it strange that ET christians didn't emphasize it as of "most importance" like they act when we tell them we don't believe in hell.
