The idea that hell is below us, perhaps in the center of the earth, comes from passages such as Luke 10:15: “And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell” (KJV).
Kwa sababu maovu mengi ikiwa ni pamoja na mauaji, watu wana dhamira ndani yao inayowaambia kuwa jambo hili ni ovu. Kaini anaweza kuwa alijiuliza kuwa kama alimuua binadamu mwenzake, ambaye aliumbwa kwa mfano wa Mungu, itakuwa haki kwake kuuawa pia.
