     I saw in a book entitled "Heaven", that:   
      
     How often have you heard things like:   
      
   1) "I'll sure as Heaven do it".   
   2) "He's one Heaven of a man".   
   3) "It scared the Heaven out of me".   
      
     Without this concept of Hell, those who swear would be limited in their   
   vocabularies.   
      
     I do remember with the old calcuators, entering numbers, and turning   
   them upside down to form a word...such as 77345 to form SHELL.
