How Hot is it in Hell?
I was out mending some fence today and it’s been brutal hot here and as I came in my buddy Mr L was having a cold one. I said it’s as hot as hell out there. He said now wait a minute, you have no idea. So I said well how high do you have the thermostat turned up down there. He said if I put that in this forum one of those pesky moderators will probably ban me for life and that’s a very long time for me. Besides, he said, why are you concerned? Thinking of taking a trip? I know quite a few of you guys on that forum are going to be visiting me real soon.
Well, later I asked his buddy Mr Death who comes by now and then to report to the boss if he knew the answer. He said, shucks, I don’t go that far down these days. I used to but I got tired of burning my cloak and losing the temper of my Scythe. Besides he has his short timers doing the meet and greets. I understand he has turned the heat up more recently.
Since we have a bunch of bright guys here I thought someone would have the answer to this question.
I mean we hear about fire and brimstone and all that but just how hot is that. I mean how hot does it have to be. Maybe like the surface of the Sun or is that too hot?
Of course I’m not worried about that being my final destination however for the guys who will be headed that way I’m sure if they knew the answer they would have their minds set at ease or at least know what they are in for.No matter how many men you kill you can't kill your successor-Emperor Nero

Thanked: 109? How bout like the heat of a thirst which only grows and can never be quenched? Maybe like the heat of passion reaching beyond sanity without satisfaction? It could be like the burning of an empty stomach with never a chance for a meal.
YMMV
It just keeps getting better

We have a saying from the times of winter war. Cold as in hell for Russians.
Joking aside, personally anything warmer than 20 C (68 F) is a hell to me.

I came across this story years ago, and I think it answers this question...

You see, Hell isn't hot at all.It's just corn syrup... Warm, blood flavored, corn syrup ...

Wait, I just carefully read this version and it has been censored... This one says Hell must have hit max capacity! Armageddon is at hand!

In all sincerity, I think you just brought up a valid point to the OP's question. Depending on the persons perspective of what Hell is, Hell's temperature can vary significantly. One's personal Hell, such as a town with a population of 3000, might differ from another's.
When looking at the different layouts of Hell, I prefer Dante's. In which this question's answer would vary as to which floor your elevator stopped on.It's just corn syrup... Warm, blood flavored, corn syrup ...
