For me it is not a time of conversation. We will be placed on a scale and the good in our lives will be weighed against the bad in our lives. The balancing out of good/bad is not always a negative thing. Many people will see all the good they did in their lives and will be greatly rewarded for it. Just a little bit of good is highly rewarded verses the same amount of bad is only a little bit of punishment. I think people have a very distorted concept of what judgement means. There is no eternal hell, but the truly bad people of this world will receive their due punishment. And anyone that has done a little bit of good will be rewarded.

Jesus stated that he and God do not judge but that there will be a judge. The bible also makes it clear that punishment is based on fear and not love. ''Perfect love casts out fear because fear has to do with punishment.''. I agree that eternal damnation is false and it is a very good fear producer
