Given the demonic actions of some of our fellow human beings, it is fitting that there be a hell, if only because no human justice can make up for such actions. I mean what torture is great enough to" reward" Saddam for the thousands he killed out of malice?

Oh, I agree. I was just talking about whether von Balthasar was really a heretic or not; I don't think he outright denied the doctrine of Hell, in any case, but he obviously didn't like it very much. It makes perfect sense to me, though, and obviously to the Church through the ages.
