Madam, - Thank you for publishing the Pope's recent comments that hell "exists and is eternal" and that we sinners risk "eternal damnation - the Inferno". In this modern Ireland, it is important we read reports like this from time to time. Good, honest people are separating themselves more and more from the teachings of the Catholic Church these days and archaic comments like these remind us why. - Yours, etc,
ORAN O'DOWD, Glenart Avenue, Blackrock, Co Dublin.
