I really like Star Trek. And sometimes when I'm thinking I like to be philosophical like Captain Spock and if something doesn't make sense I dismiss it as illogical. As I wrestle with the concept of a literal and eternal hell I often find myself saying: its illogical--I mean how can a loving God send people to a horrible place for all eternity--it doesn't compute.
However, I have no problem accepting the mystery of the Trinity or the mystery of the incarnation or the mystery of the resurrection--where is my "its illogical" when it comes to these things? Perhaps hell is another mystery that I just cannot get my finite brain around...
