First, we postulate that if souls exist, then they must have some mass. If they do, than a mole of souls can also have mass. So, at what rate are souls entering Hell, and what percentage of souls are leaving Hell? I think we can safely assume that once a soul goes to Hell it does not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.
As for souls entering Hell, lets look at the different religions in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there are more than one of these religions, and people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all people and all souls go to Hell.
With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls to increase exponentially. Now, let us look at the rate of change in volume in Hell. Boyle's law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the ratio of the mass of souls and volume needs to stay constant.
1) So, if Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls are entering, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.
2) Of course, if Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.
So which is it?
If we accept the postulate given to me by Stacy Smith during Freshman year,"It will be a cold night in Hell before I sleep with you.", and take into account the fact that I still have not succeeded in having sexual relations with her, then 2 cannot be true, and Hell is exothermic.:smoking:
