Editing Problem of Hell (section)

===Justice===
Some opponents of the traditional doctrine of Hell claim that the punishment is disproportionate to any crimes that could be committed. Because human beings have a finite lifespan, they can commit only a finite number of sins, yet Hell is an infinite punishment. In this vein, [[Jorge Luis Borges]] suggests in his essay ''La duración del Infierno''<ref>{{cite book|last=Borges|first=Jorge Luis|title=Discusión|year=1999|publisher=Alianza Editorial, S.A.|location=Madrid, España|isbn=84-206-3331-3|page=230}}</ref> that no transgression can warrant an infinite punishment on the grounds that there is no such thing as an "infinite transgression". Philosopher [[Immanuel Kant]] argued in 1793 in ''[[Religion within the Bounds of Bare Reason]]'' that since morality lies ultimately in a person's disposition, and as disposition is concerned with the adoption of universal principles, or as he called them: "maxims", every human being is guilty of, in one sense, an infinite amount of violations of the law, and  he consequently an infinite punishment is not unjustified.<ref name="Kant1998">{{cite book|author=Immanuel Kant|title=Kant: Religion within the Boundaries of Mere Reason: And Other Writings|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=hDRrfrtpJv4C|access-date=23 December 2012|year=1998|publisher=Cambridge University Press|isbn=978-0-521-59964-1|page=89}}</ref>
