Hell Is To Be Contemplated Strictly As A Matter Which Concerns Me Alone. As Part Of The Spiritual Life It Belongs Behind The 'closed Door' Of My Own Room. From The Standpoint Of Living Faith, I Cannot Fundamentally Believe In Anyone's Damnation But My Own; As Far As My Neighbor Is Concerned, The Light Of Resurrection Can Never Be So Obscured That I Would Be Allowed Or Obliged To Stop Hoping For Him.
