I'll never live enough. I'll always want more. But I'll take what I get.

Yeah...but there are other forces in life that always want more also and are never satisfied.
Prov 30:15b-16
"There are three things that are never satisfied ,
four that never say, 'Enough!':
16 the grave, the barren womb,
land, which is never satisfied with water,
and fire, which never says, 'Enough!'
NIV
and,
Prov 27:20
20 Death and Destruction are never satisfied ,
and neither are the eyes of man.
NIV
The grave always gets what it wants, doesn't it?

But the unbelieving soul still goes to the "graveyard" of hell.

There's no evidence that hell exists.

Of course there is for those of us who have eyes to see it and ears to hear the weeping and the gnashing of teeth right here on earth. Both heaven and hell co-exist right here, right now. There's plenty of evil in this world to make life here miserable for more than a few people.

Google "Helen Keller."
And "bye" is a chess term.

Isn't there something in scripture that says only God knows that?
