He didn't say all, he said most. I thought this was a pretty common opinion, especially in Europe? At least I've heard it repeated often.

And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time!

But He loves you."
