History Channel: Hell; The Devil's Domain
This started out as a look into the afterlife from the viewpoint of various world religions, but within 15 minutes, because a fundy platform.

Personally, I love giving fundies platforms because, in this day and age, they don't get enough airtime to express their views. :eyes:

1. Hmmm, if we locate Hell, we can invade it!
Maybe there's some oil.

8. Check out the Inferno
Canto X I think. The Malebolgia a moat of boiling oil where the devils pick people up with pitchforks. I think the offense has something to do with money graft and fraud. It is funny that Dante and the general populist(and clerical) fantasies know where the stick the people most admired by the RWin proper order of their offenses. The fundamentalists might want to avoid the traditional view as they do the traditional model of Church authority which had some hot places both in this world the next for people of their peculiar and damaging persuasion.

5. started watching it
and realized it was going fundy only, and switched to MythBusters. Too bad Adam and Jamie couldn't bust the myths of fundamentalism.

6. I watched some of it
and I'm inspired to come with my own version of Dante's "Inferno", so all I need is a cliff notes version of it, and my hatred of republicans in general, the fundies, and anyone else I really dislike.:evilgrin:

7. On the History Channel?
Doesn't history refer strictly to things that existed or events that happened, etc.?
