Hild proceeds apace. To keep you amused while I'm in the seventh century I give you the Dante's Inferno Test (via Jonathan Jarrett's blog). It looks like I'm going to hell, the sixth level, for lust, heresy, and violence (though, interestingly, not gluttony).
The Dante's Inferno Test has banished you to the Sixth Level of Hell - The City of Dis!
Here is how you matched up against all the levels:
Level Score Purgatory (Repenting Believers) Very Low Level 1 - Limbo (Virtuous Non-Believers) Moderate Level 2 (Lustful) High Level 3 (Gluttonous) Low Level 4 (Prodigal and Avaricious) Moderate Level 5 (Wrathful and Gloomy) Low Level 6 - The City of Dis (Heretics) Very High Level 7 (Violent) Very High Level 8- the Malebolge (Fraudulent, Malicious, Panderers) Moderate Level 9 - Cocytus (Treacherous) Moderate
Sixth Level of Hell - The City of Dis
You approach Satan's wretched city where you behold a wide plain surrounded by iron walls. Before you are fields full of distress and torment terrible. Burning tombs are littered about the landscape. Inside these flaming sepulchers suffer the heretics, failing to believe in God and the afterlife, who make themselves audible by doleful sighs. You will join the wicked that lie here, and will be offered no respite. The three infernal Furies stained with blood, with limbs of women and hair of serpents, dwell in this circle of Hell.
Limbs of women and hair of serpents. Oooh.

I'm in the Seventh. We'll be neighbors!
ReplyDeleteI used to tell people I had a chalet on the ninth ring, but according to this I'm stuck in Limbo with the virtuous non-believers. I did score high on level six, so there's always a chance, but there are just so few opportunities to sin these days...
ReplyDeleteI am mostly bummed that now that my wife & I are trying to get pregnant we just have a lot of conjugal sex for the purposes of procreation. Crap, that is like, the kind that even crazy religious nutjobs condone. Stop supporting my lifestyle, I'm not TRYING to be such a straight herb!
ReplyDeleteYou have come to a place mute of all light, where the wind bellows as the sea does in a tempest. This is the realm where the lustful spend eternity. Here, sinners are blown around endlessly by the unforgiving winds of unquenchable desire as punishment for their transgressions. The infernal hurricane that never rests hurtles the spirits onward in its rapine, whirling them round, and smiting, it molests them. You have betrayed reason at the behest of your appetite for pleasure, and so here you are doomed to remain. Cleopatra and Helen of Troy are two that share in your fate.
ReplyDeleteLooks like it's "Limbs of women and hair of serpents" for me too. :)
ReplyDeleteOnly I am an "extreme" heretic! Not surprising I suppose.
Sixth level for me too... I'll bring cookies!
ReplyDeleteI don't need to ask -- I know I'm headed for the Seventh, Sodomites', circle. I'll see my friends and not a few of my enemies there!
