[Kolokotronis]

I’ll answer “yes” or “no” to precisely the questions you posed:

“Kolokotronis, are you saying that the Eastern Orthodox Church does not believe Hell exists, at all?”

No

“Or, are you saying that after we die, we are in the presence of God, and for the unrepentant sinner, this presence is “torture” (for lack of a better word), but for the repentant, it’s more pleasant?”

Yes

“Or are you saying that there exists no form of separation for the repentant and unrepentant sinner at all?”

No

I think the site I linked to answered the questions and you completely understood the answers. I am pleased to read that the Latins share these beliefs.

Thank you! For the record, I’ve always enjoyed your posts as I find them most educational. I pray, as I’m sure you do too, for the reunification of our two churches.

God bless,

Ah, now the cross examination...

Kolo, do you believe hell to be a literal place?

Do you believe Christ descended into hell, literally?

Do you believe in a purgatory as the Latin Church believes?
