Template talk:Hell
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I am surprised to see there is no entry on the Hindu concept of Hell. Naraka and Yama, the lord of Naraka, are Hindu concepts and have been adopted by Buddhism.
[edit] Purgatory
Purgatory qualifies as a hell. It's an afterlife where you're punished in flames for your sins. It's not "the Hell," but it's "a hell" like Gehenna is. Can we add it to the template? Jonathan Tweet 05:13, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] The List
The list needs a careful review by someone who is *not* a person having grown up in and around an ambient monotheistic worldview and/or has not imbibed entire kegs of 19th century scholarship on comparative theology. Annwn is the old Welsh 'hell'? Come on... and that is not even the worst one. Even the very nature of the title of the list caters to the European / Western biases in such matters. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 192.251.125.85 (talk) 10:06, 10 March 2007 (UTC).
