Rape victims, Mormons, Catholics and other attractions?

Yeah, just in time for Holloween, one of those fundamentalist haunted houses. Read the link and maybe you might find it as offensive as I did.

"Bartelson says such notions spring from a culture made numb by evil. "Deep down inside, most of them believe there is a heaven and a hell. Because of society, they have gone cold about it. It's up to us as Christians to warn them. We're trying to keep people out of hell."
The Potter's House hell includes watching the condemned -- a Mormon missionary, Catholic nun, church-going Christian, one-time drug user, rape victim, rich man, gang banger -- suffer the agony of demons' flogging and imprisonment. "

Opening of the article:

"Which is why an evangelical Christian church here spends several nights each fall trying to scare the wits out of children and adults who otherwise might not think about eternity.
The Potter's House Christian Center's haunted house, called "Walk Through Hell" this year, has the requisite Halloween season scares. But Dave Bartelson, acting assistant pastor, says it also packs a message many don't want to hear: There is a hell and it doesn't take much to get there"

6. What is the deal with modern religions?

They don't seem to be based on anything scriptural; but rather are just made up. Catholic beliefs in the US don't even follow the Pope's beliefs in many instances. Where does this stuff come from?

7. Tree people........

They must be from out of the trees, with little brains like birds.
