How the loss of belief in Hell has had a profoundly destructive effect on civil order: DOMINIC LAWSON

Whatever sentence you are about to receive remember that after your days on earth are done, on your dying day, there will be no release for you.



Dominic Lawson argues that the decline in belief in Hell has negatively impacted civil order by removing a crucial deterrent to crime and anti-social behavior.
