I give up. Believe whatever you want.
I don't what to say. I can only tell you what I come across and what I've read.

A 2004 Gallup poll stated that 70% of Americans believe in Hell.

I was raised Lutheran (who are not fundamentalists, as best I know) and we were taught this.

If you have some source that shows that the Christians who believe in hell are some minority sect I'm open to it. By as best I can tell, your belief seems to be held by a minority of Christians.

Ultimately, a non-spiritual person starts off not caring about spiritual matters, and everything they say, think and do emanates from that starting point. I honestly don't see how they expect any of this to make sense to them, or why they are confused when it does not.
Disregarding the non spiritual i dont think it would make sense to most spiritual people in the world that Jesus can take away their sin which is separating them from God.
