Don't sweat it, this is exactly how christianity works. It's not about love, not about compassion, it is all about fear injected straight into your unconscious mind when you were a kid.
You have to remember what christianity did to humankind, how awful and dangerous it was few hundreds years ago when idea "hell" came out.
First of all, there is not a single shred of evidence for hell in ancient greek or aramaic versions of bible. Same with the virgin birth, which is just added bullshit. Word "almah" which is young woman was mistranslated into virgin, "parthenas". Can you rely on book which cannot properly translate biggest "facts" about their god? Really? I can't.
Not to mention, there is not a single word in new testament about jesus being god. He never said it, he never claimed it. People say that "son of god" which is description for thousands of people across bible is not the same as "Son of god", but... again, in ancient greek, there was no capital letter too when describing jesus as "son of god". Oh snap.
I don't even want to start with bible cycle logic, where people believe in god because bible says so, and why bible is right? Because god says so lol. Logical, reasonable human being can't believe in contradictions, but it still can induce fear if you were under indoctrination as a kid.
I didn't even scratch the surface of contradictions and pathology from the bible, trust me, if there IS a higher being, it's not morally inferior, hating, selfish christian god.
Is it normal that I don't believe in a god but I still..
