Go obiwan, I'm in purgatory too!
And yet, stunningly pro-choice...

yet you do not post your results.
The important thing to remember is slowwy's post.
It does not matter what sins you have committed, so long as you repent for them to God.

obiwan, actually questions concerning suicide and depression contributed to violence

That doesn't make much sense.
Would those who kill themselves also go to the same place as mass-murderers?
To me these seem quite different from each other.
How did Dante rate suicide?

Suicide = violence against the self
Murderers and suicides were together in the 7th level, which was itself in 3 parts: The boiling river of blood for the violent against others, the wood of suicides for those violent against themselves, and the burning sands for those violent against nature.

Re: my "violent" nature, I totally agree Obi! I have no idea why they gave me that. I guess they just arbitrarily have to give you a certain amount of "bad" points. *shrug*

Boris's point may explain why you score so high for violence.
Who knew that by taking this test we would learn so much about Dante's Inferno?

I'm not sure where you see the dry humour.
I certainly did not expect to learn that Dante classified suicide with murderers.

Ok, I just think it's odd to marvel about learning things about Dante's Inferno in a thread titled "Dante's Inferno Test."

All right, It's the City of Dis for this Heretic.
I don't believe in fortune telling, Nostradamus, psychics, etc.

Looks like there are too many heretics here already, but I guess here's one more. And all that because I don't believe in God or Nostradamus.

Very interesting, Berz - are there any books that can tell me more about this?
|
Hamlet's Mill, by Giorgio Santillana and a co-author, deals with the subject of myth and time. A must read for anyone seeking the truths hidden in myth. When the authors address Dante's Inferno, they reference another book (hard to find, written in German originally I think, but since translated into English) that is a specific analysis of Dante. There's a very interesting passage in Hamlet's Mill about the "red river" and it's 2 guardians. The authors say Dante was describing a journey from Heaven to Hell and that this red river was the border between the two, i.e., the entrance to Hell. So, Hell was either on our side of Mars in the solar system or it was beyond with the large planets.
And that's where the Bible enters the picture, according to Genesis, Heaven and Earth were created in 6 days and God rested or ceased creating on the 7th day. There are 5 outer planets and 4 inner planets divided by the asteroid belt with Earth as the 7th planet and the asteroid belt residing in the 6th orbital slot (looking from the outside inward). An African tribe believes God created Heaven and Earth in 4 days and rested on the 5th day. Looking at the solar system from the sun outwards, and placing Earth at the asteroid belt instead of it's current position, the Earth would have been the 4th planet, and with the Earth moved to it's current position, the asteroid belt would occupy the 5th orbital slot. Based on his interpretation of the Bablyonian epic of creation and Genesis, Zecharia Sitchin claims the Earth, a proto-Earth, once resided at the asteroid belt and was struck by at least one large object roughly 4 billion years ago and pushed here leaving the asteroids behind as debris left over from the collision.
