Christians use the parable of The Rich Man and Lazarus to try to prove that eternal torment is true. What they miss—as always—is context. They like to say, "Nowhere is it called a parable!" Oh, but it is. But they have to go back one chapter to see that—but they're just not that careful or interested.

Next, they proclaim that this is what happens to people who die having not believed in Jesus. Really? Where in the context is faith in Jesus even mentioned? Uh oh. This point wrecks their little torture fantasies every time.
