> HELL EXPLAINED BY CHEMISTRY STUDENT

> The following is an actual question given on a
> University Chemistry essay. The
> answer by one student was so "profound" that the
> professor shared it with colleagues, via the
> internet which is why we now
>have the pleasure of enjoying it as well :
>
> Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat)
> or endothermic (absorbs heat)?
>
> Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs
> using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and
> heats when it is compressed) or some variant.
>
> One student, however, wrote the following:
> First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is
> changing in time. So we need to know the rate at
> which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at
> which they are leaving. I think that we can safely
> assume that once a Soul gets to Hell, it will not
> leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.
>
> As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look
> at the different religions that exist in the world
> today. Most of these religions state that if you are
> not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell.
>
> Since there is more than one of these religions and
> since people do not belong to more than one
> religion, we can assume all people will go to Hell.
>
> With birth and death rates as they are, we can

> exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of
> the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that
> in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to
> stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as
> souls are added.
>
> This gives two possibilities:

> 1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the
> rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature
> and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell

>
> 2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the
> increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and
> pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

> So which is it?

> then number two must be true, and thus I am sure
> that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over.

> The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has
