I was reading Miguel de Unamuno who was a spanish Catholic thinker and he says something very interesting which is that given our longing as a species to preserve our individual conscience that the worst that could happen to one person would be to die and that your conscience ceased to exist. He even says he would prefer hell over it because at least he could have his individual conscience in hell.
This leads me to believe that probably the punishment for all the evil people is that their conscience will be erased forever from this world and they will cease to exist when they die. Good people on the contrary will have eternal life.
So hell isn't a literal place where you're tortured but the worst possible punishment isin fact ceasing to exist forever.
