Not really, no. It gets more obvious every day that my life is entrusted to God’s mercy one way or another. I might have some fear of myself, knowing how unreliable and short on charity I am, but not hell per se. Hell is a rational consequence of a rational creature, and consequences aren’t morally good or evil. Only souls are good or evil.

I might sin a little or sin a lot: it’s still a question of his mercy. That doesn’t mean I’m apathetic to growing in holiness, but I’ll come up short no matter how high I climb. You can shoot a short harpoon or a long harpoon towards the moon. Guess what: you’re not going to hook it. God descends to you prior to you ascending to him.

Yes, but throwing the longest harpoon you have helps you to recognize God when he comes down to meet you, and puts you in the frame of mind to give him your full attention.
 
Hell has come to us. It is now time to humble ourselves as women and accept societies elected view of us as, “fat pigs’, ‘dogs’, ‘slobs’, and 'disgusting animals” … unless of course you can humble yourself to wear “hooters” tops, or join a beauty pageant. Pray for our little girls.
