    If I were the devil and this world was mine to see Well, I’d witness all the atrocities and it’d probably frighten me So I’d run back home with a story to tell I’d tell all my demon friends that I always preferred Hell — Colby Acuff

    One of the existential terrors of deconstruction is realizing the human species is plenty capable of evil and atrocity, that no demons are needed

    Then when we’ve seen the absolute worst humans could imagine, Sir David Attenborough comes along holding Nature’s beer.

      Every concept of hell and the details on what earns you a spot there I have always translated to “hell on earth.”

      As in: the things someone would do to earn them a spot in hell creates hell on earth. There is no hell other than the hell people create for us here.
