Of course, the traditional view of Hell makes no logical or rational sense.

Rob Bell is the latest of many believers to give voice to this glaring inconsistence of the Christian doctrine.

This life of both good and evil, life and death, heaven and hell is for the enlighthenment of humanity, for maturity and growth. Just as a wise father will allows his children to reap the harvest and understand the results from bad decisions, God allows the same. God has allowed difficulty and "natural disasters" in this phyiscal world, we are required to run our course, to serve our generation and then we experience physical death, then comes the "judgment", the setting of things right. Then we will know, then we will be purged by His fiery presence, then we will be like Him, we will understand His Holiness, His power and His love, becoming true children of God.
