According to Dante which circle of Hell are you gonna end up in?

This question of course excludes any one Christian living a morally pure life, because of course, you don't have a sense of humor.

The Circles are as follows:

Pre-first circle: Did nothing with your life. (Chasing a flag forever)

First Circle- Limbo: Didn't accept Jesus as your savior but lived a morally pure life. (Sitting about not seeing god ever)

Second Circle: Lust. (Being blown about in the dark)

Third Circle: Gluttony. (Being hailed on and tied to the ground)

Fourth Circle: Greed (I forget what happens here but it's bad possibly you get whipped.

Fifth Circle- The Stygian Lake: Anger (In a lake constantly drowning clawing for the surface)

Sixth Circle- The City of Dis: Being a Heretic (Being burnt alive in a tomb forever)

seventh: Violence (The worst of the Seven)

If you went to Hell where would you be and why?

    I'm a Pagan so I suppose I'll be roasting marshmallows with the other heretics.

    Larry Niven wrote a book called Inferno. It does a wonderful job of describing Dante's Inferno from an atheist's point of view.

    I'd be pre-first or first, I reckon. I'm pretty law-abiding. I'm guilty of lust at times, but it tends to be lust for my wife...can I get a pass on that one? I'm not gluttonous or greedy in the slightest and I'm fairly mellow. As for violence, I don't kill anything that lives unless it's by mistake (stepping on an insect).

    Then again, this R and S section is pretty much the eighth circle, isn't it?

    Dante did not write hell, but invented the purgatory, or a place of penance and indulgence before moving to paradise, and the Catholics have fallen as Boccalon '!?!

    There is no purgatory, but there is hell and heaven !!! Unfortunately!!!

    They all sound lovely... but being blown in the dark would be my circle of choice.

    Everything after that sounds more like 50 shades of grey than 7 circles of hell...

    Source(s): No. I have not read that book...

    Rational people know that hell doesn't exist.
