Two kinds of people, in the end…

Everyone from C. S. Lewis to Rod Serling of Twilight Zone fame has conjectured that hell is nothing more than getting exactly what you wanted from God – to be left alone. Lewis said it like this:

“There are only two kinds of people in the end: those who say to God, ‘Thy will be done.’ And those to whom God says, ‘Thy will be done.’ All that are in hell choose it. I believe the damned are successful rebels to the end; that the doors of hell are locked from the inside.” — The Problem of Pain, Chapter 8

Rod Serling’s portrayal of this is here.
