Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)? 

In answer, one student wrote the following: 

First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we
need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at
which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul
gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. 

As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different
religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state that
if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there
is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more
than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and
death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to
increase exponentially. 

Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's
Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay
the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are
added. This gives two possibilities: 

1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls
enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until
all Hell breaks loose. 

2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in
Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.


So which is it?  If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during
my Freshman year that, 'It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with
you'   Then we take into account the fact that I slept with her last night,
therefore number 2 must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic
and has already frozen over. 

The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it
follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is, therefore, extinct.
 Logically, this leaves only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a
divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting, 'Oh my
God!' 

This student received the only 'A' for this question.
