I asked how is it possible for your loving God to torture dead people? Someone wrote: "It's their souls, not their bodies." What is this "soul" thing?
Is the soul invisible? Is it magical? Your loving God can torture my imaginary soul. I won't care because I will be dead.

This was one of the fucktard answers. These people are totally insane.

We ARE living souls, who have a body, and the spirit part of us is invisibly part of our being.
That is why the Bible states in Ecclesiastes chapter 12 that at physical death, our bodies return to the ground and our spirit returns to God who gave it. Then we have to account to God for how we lived in our bodies.
When Jesus was about to die, He cried out, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit." He was not talking about His last exhalation of air from His lungs.
When Stephen was being stoned to death, he had just seen a vision of the Father and Jesus in Heaven and he cried out, "Lord Jesus, receive my spirit!"
The Bible is clear about the physical body rotting in the grave (Hebrew word qe'ver) but the invisible, spirit part living on and being aware of another dimension. Read Jesus' description of what happened to that spirit part in two men who died. It's in Luke chapter 16, second half, and one dead man found himself in torments in hell, which the other man found himself in bliss in what Jews called "the bosom of Abraham". Jews then believed that this was the holding place for the spirits of the dead, who would either be in bliss or torment until the future day of Resurrection, when new bodies would be created with which to 'clothe' the spiritual part of them.

To be nice I wrote this:
Thanks for your answer. My magical soul is in big trouble. But for some reason, I don't care. Maybe it's because everything you wrote is totally insane.
