no, they just died. hell is a ridiculous concept, especially paired with a benevolent deity. in fact, the doctrine of hell, present in most religions (but not all) reveals the true purpose of religion - coercion, not redemption. seriously, it's enough to know your enemy suffered as much as possible before they died. why pretend they're burning for eternity? believers say fear is not key to why they believe, but you know that's a lie because they wouldn't try to use fear to manipulate someone else to believe if they didn't feel it was effective in themselves. "you can understand why they would invent a heaven, but why would they invent hell? simple. it's for the other guy to go to." (christopher hitchens)
