What the Hell?

If the church in general can adopt and perpetuate a falsely interpreted and twisted doctrine such as the unfortunate misconception of 'hell' for so long, what else have they got wrong? that's all I'm saying... Don't just take things on 'authority', take authority on things. God has given us brains and we should intend to use them. Seeking the truth is too tame a term, sometimes you have to get a shovel and dig it up.
