Why would a loving God send people to Hell?

[saidsimplesimon]

9. Ecclesiastes 3 ESV

I'm still open minded to the concept of a supreme presence. My concept is based on love, thus hate is an anathema. I do note that the scripture allows for "a time to hate" and will admit to finding this dark place more often than I would like.

A Time for Everything

For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:

a time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
a time to kill, and a time to heal;
a time to break down, and a time to build up;
a time to weep, and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
a time to seek, and a time to lose;
a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
a time to tear, and a time to sew;
a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
a time to love, and a time to hate;
a time for war, and a time for peace.
