I laugh hilariously while making "horns" on my head with my fingers, then I stick my tongue out, shake my head and growl.
I have an expressive face. Do not need to say anything, give them 'the look'
May you burn in hell ? my reply " What makes you think I'm not already there ? "
Usually laugh a bit.. and explain that it's the equivalent of me threatening them with the actions of voldemort, or the orc horde.. I then usually explain, that if their god is real.. I wouldn't want to spend any time with the narcissistic mass murder, and will enjoy the company of any alternative.
They really don't unless they're strangers, but if they do it's usually met with humor & sarcasm.
mostly laughter I mean it;s the same thing as threating me with beating with a piece of boiled pasta...but at least the pasta exist;s
By my belief system which is to use facts and not myths I am pretty certain that no such place does exists. Furthermore , I find that a religion that is supposed to be all forgiving would condemn people who have differing beliefs to hell completely nonsense.
Laugh at them and say “what type of deity would think up burning people forever, that is insanity and think that over and hope the other God is not the real one’. My exact words. Shuts 90 percent of them up on the spot
I just laugh in their face.. let them know how duped they have been by the brainwashing techniques they ignorantly think to be true. People fear what they do not know.
Can't say that I've ever been threatened with that, or it's been so long, I don't recall. I would assume if someone did tell me I was going to hell, I'd probably just chuckle and walk away...
I laugh at them and politely suggest that they should not be deluding themselves.
I try to be respectful as long as they are. I tell them that I don't believe in their afterlife and its my concern not theirs. If they get belligerent, I try to separate myself from them and if I can't I give them the old "its your hell, you burn in it".
"Um, no thanks. The Flying Spaghetti Monster has better plans for me."
