Matthew Archbold has brief but dead-on commentary on how people view God. He writes:
I remember a theology professor of mine questioning the existence of Hell and saying he didn’t believe in Hell because he couldn’t correlate a loving God and Hell. But what he was really saying was that if he created a world he wouldn’t include Hell. But he didn’t create the world and I think he was just upset he hadn’t been consulted.
