Please share how the views in the OP have harmed you.
Plenty of people are literally psychologically traumatized by the spoonfeeding of hell threats and horrors during their upbringing.
It's like when your kid is scared of monsters under the bed, and you then confirming such monsters are real and scaring the kid even more by invoking them as threats, instead of just telling the child that such monsters aren't real and comforting the kid instead.
The psychological damage such things cause is extremely understimated.
Everybody instantly recognizes how immoral it is to scare your kids like that by pretending the monsters under the bed are real and will engage in unspeakable horror towards the kids if they aren't carefull.
But somehow, hell threats get a free pass because of, once again, the unreasonable privileges of religion.
I say, this is a form of psychological child abuse and we should not at all be silent about it.
The problem is that the parents actually believe it too, while no parent believes in the monsters under the bed.
Who is it that worthy of passing judgment?
Anyone with a decent enough argument to underpin said judgement.
