The other 2 are movies also. The 9th Configuration stars Stacy Keach, and The Exorcist 3 (Legion) stars George C. Scott. Good movies, and the sound effects on Exorcist 3 are the best I have ever heard. But they do not do justice to the books. Of course, I am unfamiliar with Chardin. It sounds interesting. Hell: I would say that if someone makes war with God, and God wins, then that someone loses. Perhaps if they believe they were duped into making war with God then they may not accept that. My favorite book on Hell: Inferno by Larry Niven, Jerry Pournelle Amazon reviews: When a classical old world text is used as a template for a modern science fiction novel the heart must sink. A modern rendering of Dante's inferno? Preposterous, impertinent, heretical? No, it is actually a brilliant and very enlightened update of a true classic. The adaptation of the punishments of the past for 'modern' sins (particularly the fate of marketers) is very perceptive, Dante could scarce have imagined the inventiveness of modern sin. I would recommend this book to any classics or literature student to read in conjunction with the original.
