Punishment in Hell for the Deadly Sin of Lust: Smothered in Fire, Brimstone

Lustful people, those guilty of committing the deadly sin of lust, will be punished in hell by being smothered in fire and brimstone.

It's a bit of a stretch, though.

I’ve heard of jacuzzi parties like the one in the picture. That Satan really knows how to throw a party!
It takes twisted minds to think of punishments for the afterlife.
“but when was the last time a Christian leader spoke out against pride, envy, gluttony, or even anger?”
Maybe they won’t speak out against pride or anger because they constantly smother themselves in those things.
“It takes twisted minds to think of punishments for the afterlife.”
Yes, it does. How can people condemn human dictators that have their dissidents tortured and worship a god who does the same thing? Any god who would allow someone to be smothered in fire and brimestone for eternity sounds worse than the Nazis to me.
By the way, where does the bible actually mention the seven deadly sins?

The seven deadly sins are never actually listed in the bible. From what I understand, the Catholic church created a list of the 7 sins that offend the god of Christianity and are supposedly most harmful to one’s soul.
