 Another conception, derived from the scripture about "Gehenna" is simply that people will be discarded (burned), as being unworthy of preservation by God.Eastern Christian traditions (Eastern Orthodoxy and Oriental Orthodoxy) differ drastically from their western counterparts on the subject matter, viewing sin in less legalistic sense, but more as a spiritual illness that needs to be cured and purged.. it is seen as a state of opposition to the love of God, a state into which all humans are born but against which Jesus Christ is the Mediator and Redeemer.Eastern traditions have established their views on Paradise and Gehenna from theologians like Isaac of Nineveh and Basil of Caesarea and the Fathers of the Church.
