Re: The case for hell

I don't think there is some grand conspiracy to do that.  But the effect of the 
majority of reporters believing that has the same effect.  It serves to confirm 
their preconceived notions.  


News has pretty much become opinion verification.  And it is the same for both 
sides.

Do you think this is just another media game to demote Christianity to an 
intolerant faith?

Considering what passes for journalism nowadays I suppose I shouldn't be 
surprised.  But I retain my right to be disappointed that those that claim to be 
journalists jump on a trend, look no further than the usual suspects, fail to do 
any independent research and spew forth nonsense and claim it is news.  


The "pro-hell faction" may not even have noticed Bell's book if it hadn't been 
treated like something revolutionary by the "lamestream" media, (yeah its a 
hokey label but it sure fits in this instance).

Certainly-though the reaction from the "pro-hell" factions certainly made it out 
to be some new heresy they needed to stamp out.  Many took to Twitter and 
Facebook to denounce Bell.  So, I am not surprised that the media is treating it 
like it's fresh.
