Hell is not a fiery place of torment

The Catholic Church had no right to prevent people from having a personal copy of the bible because they do not have authorship of the bible. God is the author of the bible and he wants all humans to have easy access to it. The Catholic Church was afraid that once people have their own copy of the bible they will expose all the numerous false teachings such as hellfire propagated by the Catholic Church. You cannot interpret Matthew 9 by saying the "cut if off "part is not literal but the " fire" is literal. Mathew13:13-15"Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive: For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.' Matthew 13:34,35-"All these things Jesus spoke unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable he spoke not unto them:That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world." My point is Jesus used figures of speech liberally. His words should be understood in a context . Matthew 9 is another perfect example of hyperbole. Here are a few examples of hyperbole used by Jesus. Matthew19:24-"And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God". Matthew6:3-"But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:" Matthew 7:3-5-"And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye." Mark11:23-"For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith". You are more concerned about wicked people paying a penalty for their bad deeds. When Jesus was on earth and the prostitute Mary Magdalene was brought before him, Jesus did not condemn her.He said- "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her.......When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more."John8:3-11 Moreover,John5:28,29-" Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation." This is very clear that dead people in the grave will be resurrected. It doesn't say they will be resurrected out of a place of torment.It says "all that are in the graves shall hear his voice and come forth." Also,Jeremiah7:31-"For the children of Judah have done evil in my sight, saith the LORD: they have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to pollute it. And they have built the high places of Tophet, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my heart." In the context of this scripture,God was angry with Judah for burning their children to a false god. If hellfire was real ,would it not be hypocritical for God to condemn Judah for burning their children in fire when God burns dead people in fire. Medical science defines death as the cessation of all biological functions that sustain a living organism. When someone is dead they are unresponsive ; incapable of being stirred emotionally or intellectually. Its impossible to torment a dead person in fire. Matthew 12:40-'For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.' Jesus was in hell (grave) for three days. Sin came into this world through Adam and Eve's disobedience. We inherited sin. You talk of justice, so how come the original sinners- Adam and Eve- were condemned to death not to a fiery place of torment?
