[TAW SPOILERS] Let's talk religion

While I suspect you're right, I'm not sure that we can say that conclusively at this point.
There's a lot of use of "hell" in the sense of "blow them to hell", but very little mention of it in a religious context.
There are two examples a quick search turns up that might be relevant.
--- Quote ---The impression of the whole was that of rampant life, growing as wild as the deadly green hell covering the surface of the world

That's interesting (although not capitalised, unlike Heaven and the next example I've got). That seems to be using hell in the colloquial "miserable place" sense, rather than the metaphysical.
There is also
--- Quote ---“But there was screaming like souls in Hell from inside, and what looked like smoke from a fire.”
--- End quote ---
That's the only example I've found that's capitalised, and it is a place for souls. However, I'm not sure we can definitely tie it specifically to the God Beyond (Although I suspect that it is).
Worth considering as well - Heaven is apparently a real place where something resides. Hell quite possibly does too.
Of course, given that the Enemy appears to be on the surface, and the surface is pretty hellish, I wouldn't be surprised if there was some overlap there.

All I can say is the references to Archangels have me waiting for Mr. Sunshine to make a crossover appearance.

I happen to agree with you. I mean Jim does play with us a bit but I got the impression he'd considered a crossover from his slightly teasing answer in a Q&A a while back. It was a question about whether DF would cross over with CA. I would definitely love to see CS as part of the DFU. Consider the surface creatures and the Enemy. Especially with that recent WoJ about Outsiders looking different in each universe.
I also rather enjoy your take Burger_Prince. Reminds me a lot of Zelzanzy's Lord of Light. Super advanced techno-gods and what not. I don't think he'll go there at this point however.

Is it possible that the Cinder Spires world IS the DF Earth after the events of the BAT? There seems to be some evidence that the planet is a version of Earth after an apocalypse.
