Hey, you gotta understand religion if you want to effectively argue against it, so thanks! Clarification is always welcome! I don’t see any trolling here.
The clarification is fairly stupid, that being said. "He doesn't send you there, you send yourself there" is a distinction without a difference when the all powerful god not only is the only reason hell exists, but supposedly created this world and the people in it knowing ahead of time specifically which people would go to the hell he created. It's like saying I didn't stab you, you just didn't get out of the way of my knife.
Their clarification is basically just a modern white-washing of their jealous, vengeful, and petty god's holy doctrine, since the traditional "god hates you if you're not just so" is working on less and less of the population
