Dante's Nine Levels of Hell
Okay guys, a general knowledge question about a place that has always gotten a lot of rather bad press. Hell. Now these are the levels:
Purgatory
Level 1 - Limbo
Level 2
Level 3
Level 4
Level 5
Level 6 - The City of Dis
Level 7
Level 8- the Malebolge
Level 9 - Cocytus
The Treacherous, The Gluttonous, The Virtuous Non-Believers, Heretics, The Wrathful and Gloomy, The Violent, The Lustful, The Prodigal and Avaricious, Repenting Believers, and The Fraudulent and Malicious and Panderers.
So who ends up in which level?
When you're done, how bout checking:
Purgatory - Repenting Believers
Level 1 - Limbo - Virtuous Non-Believers
Level 2 - Lustful
Level 3 - Gluttonous
Level 4 - Prodigal and Avaricious
Level 5 - Wrathful and Gloomy
Level 6 - The City of Dis - Heretics
Level 7 - Violent
Level 8- the Malebolge - Fraudulent, Malicious, Panderers
Level 9 - Cocytus - Treacherous
How did you go? Weren't you surprised 'gluttony' is worse , spiritually speaking, than 'lust'! Perhaps this is your view of things anyway!
If you want more info bout any denizen type, just click on the level cos it's a link.
But if you just want a 'ready reckoner' to specifically place yourself ... :
To finish, a couple of modern visions from the Red Nose Gallery - 'Hell' and, to comfort and distract those definitely going to Level 9, 'Heaven':
'Hell'
'Heaven'See you there!
That is so sad that people live in fear of these different levels of hell. And really, if this so-called hell does exist (which I believe it don't) for all those supposed sins, then it is REALLY sad that a supposed "loving" Gawd would resort to such a fucked-up idea.
ReplyDeleteAs we speak they're digging a new level of hell for Bush and his enablers...
