I have a hard time being a Christian (my entire family is Christian) because of the concept of hell. How can a good God sentence people to eternal torture? I don't believe in free will (not at all, not even a little bit), so I don't believe that people are responsible for their actions. The most horrible criminals are victims of their environment and biology. Not even they deserve hell. Let alone all the decent human beings that so many believe are destined for the eternal flames simply because they disagree on a point of theology.
