While I was being witnessed to I was scared to death of Hell! That worked out ok because I got saved as a result. To me now it doesn't matter if I was "scared into it" or not... I'm just glad that I am saved and on my way to Heaven!

In that case, can you explain me what Heaven is like?, or Hell, for that matter?, or how to make better straw men and a priori arguments?
I'm just glad that I am... on my way to Heaven!
This is the wrong section, but wherever you hide it it's still horseshit. Witnessed, saved, Heaven - same old moronic claptrap.
You could be "saved" from the tyranny of conditioned fear by understanding that hell is only a frivolous threat by humans, to coerce other humans. Also for elitism. For instance, you pretend to be above it while hoping that others suffer forever because of an evil god who tricks most people into that? It's different with things that are not death or eternal suffering wishes or threats; for instance I could point at ignorance and that doesn't damn you to an eternal suffering pit. Thus this fabricates a chasm between your cult and the rest of society, to manipulate you and likely to enrich somebody at your detriment. Unfortunately, the sacrifices you invest in the cult are likely in vain and your propaganda is a trap for the ignorant.
