A friend had told me about this guy named Edward Fudge who had written a book about annihilationism. I had already had a problem with the concept of sinners burning in hell forever and ever even though that's what I had been taught my whole life. It just didn't seem like the heart of God that would cause or allow that nor did it make sense. It just seemed like overkill. This movie is a good introduction to the understanding of hell being a place where unbelievers go to be destroyed. His arguments are not only compelling but I believe very accurate as to the meaning of the scripture on this matter. Die-hard traditionalists blow off this teaching and call it heresy, but I doubt any of them have done the research and study that Mr. Fudge has done to get to the bottom of it all. Mackenzie Astin's performance as Edward Fudge is great and Keri Lynn Pratt (Sara Faye) is an angel.
