Religion

that a good number of people are going to hell--just not themselves. If you prove hell exists, you're proving the existence of everything associated with it, including the reasons for going there and a way to avoid it.

Believers in hell also believe in heaven and ghosts and spirits. They don't believe in the gods of Greek mythology, but if you ask them to use that same reasoning and apply it to their belief in "God," they can't or won't.

Talking about proof of hell is a good example of the correct way to use the phrase "begging the question." It's misused 99% of the time nowadays.
