about there

Not low enough

only Satan can fit in there tho

We'll have to build a new level for people like that under satan's room

Mothers who kill their children immediately go to the 9th circle.

True

The only betrayal that could be considered worse is the betrayal of Judas..

I think we will all agree that Judas was a fool but a much better person than these

Yeah

Judas at least felt sorrow for his betrayal

9th circle is traitors, I suppose circle 10 could be Satan's literal asshole eternally consuming mothers who betray their unborn children and the doctors who perform the sacrifice

The circles don't exist. They were 'invented' by Dante Alighieri as a storytelling device for his epic poem

Nigga, if you have any better ideas on how hell works, I'm all ears.

Nigga, I'm not using a working of Hell literally based on a self-admittedly fictional literary device.

"LOOK AT ME, I'M SO TRAD THAT I DON'T REFER TO DANTE WHEN EVEN THE FECKING CHURCH DOES. MUH DOGMA."

Dante is 'literally' an epic poem. Nothing in it is theologically accurate, weirdo.

The circles probably don't exist, but as it is an epic poem, they are epic

Dante was not just a poet tho

he was a well rounded renaissance man

i dont think his poem is something catholics can take at face value

but its not something that can be outright dismissed either

Yeah, basically this

I'm well aware the circles are fiction, I was memeing

Dantes inferno is dumb

It's good for what it is, solid piece of satire and allegory

Less goofy than the Pilgrim's Progress

Dante's Infeno is good

The book or the game?

The book

I do find it weird how a random guy came up with an interpretation of hell and the RCC simply adopted it.

Dante Aligheri wasn't just a random guy. Nor was he a particularly revered figure for his day.

I do remember seeing a post equating him to a modern /r9k/ shitposter or /b/tard.

Which I find to be uncharitable.

But amusing.

the divine comedy intrigues me, I want to read it

Supposed to be super long.

I don't doubt that, but its bound to be at least a not utter shite read

If you like translated works from archaic language then yea

he wasnt a random guy

he was a (lay) theologian and philosopher among other things
