Unexpected Descent Into Hell
- Steve Kang recounts falling into a vivid, crowded hell during surgery after a suicide attempt.
- He describes towering demons, perpetual agony, and the certainty of eternal condemnation that forced his spiritual re-evaluation.
Works-Based Religion Lacks Original Sin

- After ten days awake from laced drugs, Steve attempted suicide and was seriously wounded before being rushed to UCI Medical Center.
- During surgery he experienced out-of-body episodes and a downward elevator-like drop into hell.
