You said, "You can read into scripture a theology of hell for sinners or if you so choose", so I must assume you don't think it's there. I believe it is, and it's been discussed already in an earlier thread.
You also said, "They are not to be found in Gehenna but go trough Gehenna on their way to the light... " Scripture references, please.
You also said, "All of our sins go throuh the winepress or the "smoke of their torment ascends up for the ages of the ages; and they have no rest day or night" (Rev 14.10,11", which I take to mean you believe only an entity called SIN goes to hell, not any souls."
But exactly what is tormented is clear when you look at the verses closely:
----------------------
NIV
10he, too, will drink of the wine of God's fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. He will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb. 11And the smoke of their torment rises for ever and ever. There is no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and his image, or for anyone who receives the mark of his name."
KJV
10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
----------------------
Notice who "they" refers to: it is PEOPLE who worship the beast. "Sins" cannot worship.
