To Hell or not to Hell...

...That is the question! -Shriekspeare, from the Darkathian Film FestivalHarkening back to when ultimate evil threatened the micronational world with demonic domination (ahh, such sweet memories), I recall a lot of issues being brought up about the PRH's religious and ethical standings.A lot of people were concerned that I was leading some sort of Satanic or Neo-Nazi cultish quasi-micronation. And with the rehatching of Hell coming about (planned) in October, the PRH will undoubtedly face the same situation.Thing is, the PRH is the farthest thing from a Satanic or Neo-Nazi cult you can get. It's Paganic/Wicca in nature, but is geared more towards my tastes in goth/heavy metal music than anything else. The PRH, as I imagine it, is like a darker, more gothic Istvanistan. But I fear the typecasting will persist.Furthermore, I fear the project will become another Audentior. A failed resurrection. Due primarily to the fact that people will not join because they fear they will be typecast among the "devil worshippers". I would rather let the place rest in peace than resurrect it only for it to fail quickly afterwards.On the off hand, I have another micronational nation-building project i've been toying with on the back burner. A nation that would be, in effect, much like a democratic Hanover. But that is in reserve and none of the information on that project has been released to the public yet.So, I would like to get a general opinion from everyone here. You lot are the most familiar with the PRH, and I trust your opinions. If you think the PRH is a bad idea, then say so. I want to know your opinions of if I should forge ahead with the PRH as planned, or if I should simply let it stay dead.
