The existence of hell?

Prompted by comments elsewhere about somebody "going to hell (if it exists)"

Two views of hell that I picked up from a (much treasured, long lost) book of catholic jokes.

The archbishop: "Of course I believe in hell. There are too many people I want to put there not to."

The canon lawyer: "Hell must exist as God is all-knowing and all-judging. As to whether there is anybody in hell, don't forget that He is also all-merciful".
