I suppose the point I was trying to make is that the two concepts cannot be compared. One is a very real world issue that we face from day to day, while the other is a threat that cannot be seen or measured.
There's plenty of studies that show mass shootings are on the rise in the US, which should be alarming and taken seriously by everyone, imo. On the other hand, hell is just the same old regurgitated threat without anything tangible to back it up as it always has been.
If there was no religious text telling us what we are suppose to fear, we wouldn't be the wiser, as far as hell is concerned. As far as I can tell, the concept of hell isn't even a natural aspect of reality, while the other is at least comprehensible in a real way, even if one disagrees with my views on the subject of gun control itself.
The non-biblical hell teaching of forever burning does Not have anything tangible to back it up....
The other hell, the Bible's hell, is comprehensible in a real way because the Bible's hell is the temporary grave for most of the sleeping dead until Resurrection Day when Jesus begins his 1,000-year rule over Earth.
We can't stop guns, but according to Micah 4:3-4; Isaiah 2:4 under Christ's coming millennium-long day of governing over Earth mankind will Not learn war any more. Mankind will Not be educated about the destructive use of guns.
