Yeah, right.

You don't need a carrot or a stick to get people to do your will. Anyone really good at it would know that.

I was referring the the carrot and stick used on me. Never said that was anything like my methodology. I prefer methods where the manipulated has no idea it's happening.

I find the first question of this survey to be very enlightening... why should it matter?
Quote
Please select your gender:   Male/Female

Quote
Would you sooner go without sex than go without good-tasting food?
Is this not a trick question? Lust or Gluttony, what about neither?

Quote
Think about some of the sinful or wrong things you've done in the past. Do you foresee yourself continuing to do these things?
Define right and wrong?

Rich men and women deserve every penny and should spend or save their wealth as they wish.
I wonder if this true/false question sits well with the large portion of evangelical republican party proponents.

Guarded by the Minotaur, who snarls in fury, and encircled within the river Phlegethon, filled with boiling blood, is the Seventh Level of Hell. The violent, the assasins, the tyrants, and the war-mongers lament their pitiless mischiefs in the river, while centaurs armed with bows and arrows shoot those who try to escape their punishment. The stench here is overpowering. This level is also home to the wood of the suicides- stunted and gnarled trees with twisting branches and poisoned fruit. At the time of final judgement, their bodies will hang from their branches. In those branches the Harpies, foul birdlike creatures with human faces, make their nests. Beyond the wood is scorching sand where those who committed violence against God and nature are showered with flakes of fire that rain down against their naked bodies. Blasphemers and sodomites writhe in pain, their tongues more loosed to lamentation, and out of their eyes gushes forth their woe. Usurers, who followed neither nature nor art, also share company in the Seventh Level.

Level Who are sent there? Score
Purgatory  Repenting Believers  Very Low
Level 1 - Limbo  Virtuous Non-Believers  Low
Level 2  Lustful  Very High
Level 3  Gluttonous  Very Low
Level 4  Prodigal and Avaricious  Very Low
Level 5  Wrathful and Gloomy  High
Level 6 - The City of Dis  Heretics  Very High
Level 7  Violent  Very High
Level 8- the Malebolge  Fraudulent, Malicious, Panderers  Very High
Level 9 - Cocytus  Treacherous  High
I have become, again and again.

Unfortunate fact of life: Dealing with people who don't understand why everyone else shouldn't have to follow their rules.

Anyone who tries to impose their values or rules on others deserve every can of whoopass that might be heading their way...

Eg. The US administrations and Islamic extremists deserve eachother... Unfortunately, both factions have a tendency to want to drag everyone else into their mess too.

Why should I? And start with what? I have encountered no opposition of that kind so far...

Not to forget that Dante Alighieri, author of the mentioned work was also a member of the "White Party" in Florence.
He was banned and wrote this book more as a political payoff than a religious work. That`s why we find all of his political enemy's in hell and his Friend's in either the purgatory or heaven.
On this note it is also interesting that there is a "Which level of Hell will you go to" quiz but I have never seen a "Which level of Heaven will you go to" quiz.
I find the fascination of western religions with the concept of hell rater unsettling. Actually everything revolves around hell in the catholic Church. I have more than once pointed out that it seems the duty of Catholic personal to whip the people to the collection box using the fear of hell.
But that's just my  :2c:
