Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it.
(Isaiah 5:14) KJV
It appears that the expansion of hell is due, at least in part, to the addition of human souls. However it also contains the implication that hell has expanded in anticipation of the arrival of new souls.
We have a working hypothesis that each human soul is a created instance of gravity. As such, when people die and their souls go to hell, the gravitational component of the Earth is being transferred from the crust to the core. The increased force of gravity in the core causes molten material from the lower mantle to fall into hell. This is the reason for its physical expansion.

Gravitational Waves
We’re investigating the possibility that hell emits gravitational waves in response to fluctuations in the human death rate.
Predictive Testable Hypothesis 13
- IF the center of the Earth is the source of gravity for the observable universe (an empirical observation),
- AND human souls are gravity nodes,
- THEN fluctuations in the human death rate are the cause of gravitational waves.
