"...suggest to him a picture of something in red tights...."
Much of our modern notions (mis-conceptions?) of hell come from Dante's Inferno.
While I'd love for people to get past their notions of a man w/ horns, I'd hate to give up the idea that there isn't a Ninth Circle of Hell, which features ice and icy waters into which sinners are cast for eternity. Here in Michigan, we call that January.....
Oh, when Hades freezes over?
Tell me about it. I lived in Minnesota for 10 years and now live in Phoenix.
Cheers!
