thank you for the excellent post. This Protestant can fully accept the catechism definition: By definition, according to CCC 1033, hell is “[the] state of definitive self-exclusion from communion with God and the blessed.”

I especially enjoyed the author’s study of the definitions of the words from Hebrew to Greek, to English in the discussion of the various lines of scripture.

Hell will be a fun place then...There are already billions of people living in self exclusion from communion from God and they love it...They can live in eternal bliss in front of ESPN with a constant cold beer on the coffee table...
