God isn't dangling anyone over the mouth of Hell and the Catholic Church never taught that He is. Someone who doesn't work out their Salvation with fear and trembling sufficient to keep them in line with Church teaching is someone who prefers to go their own way and God will let them.
The post to which I respond is actually slamming God for giving people exactly what they want hidden behind the pretense that it's a slam at the Latin Church. Interesting testimony.

The “Do this or you will go to Hell” phronema of the Church in the West? Oh, happy Faith!
