Your life is full of forked roads. Good and evil, yes and no, only you can make those choices. God does the same thing with Heaven and Hell. You chose the road you will take, God does not send you there, you send you there.
For God to give us fallible human beings the ability to “choose” a never-ending future being spiritually burned alive, would make Him like a parent of a newborn baby who puts a loaded pistol in the crib with the baby. He just isn’t going to do it, contrary to what mistranslated and misunderstood “scripture” has been twisted to mean. The hand of man taints everything it touches, including Bible translations and “teachings”. The Pharisees thought they understood scripture too.
