never did he say that your going to hell….. all he said was "prepare for the hell fire then" …. technically its different.
like saying
your going to get your *** beat..
or prepare to get your *** beat.
Subtle difference. So let me modify my statement. He said if you don't follow my religion, be prepared for hellfire. Does it sounds better? It might be a private conversation. But such things that have slightest possibility of creating unnecessary dissent should be nipped at bud. Religion is a private business. Should keep it out of sports ground.
