'Hell' as an invention of the church

John Shelby Spong, retired Episcopal bishop from Newark, N.J., talks about why Christianity must change its view of hell. Spong is one of the leading spokepersons for liberal Christianity.


I was able to view this video by entering the title "Hell as an invention of the church" in both YouTube & MSNBC.
Feel free to comment below after viewing.

HELLo

We have decided that 'hell' will be the topic of discussion when we meet on Wednesday, January 30th. The plan is to meet in the parlor @ 7:30. All are welcome for a time of open exploration and discussion on the evenings topic.

I hope to get some articles posted in the near future (on this blog) for your viewing and reading pleasure. This is really just one big test to see if I am capable of putting a blog together... and seeing if we are able to post, add, etc. Thinking that if this works out, it will be a good place to leave comments as well as share ideas over time.
