** While crossing the flaming tombs of the Sixth Circle where heretics are punished, Allen comes across Charles Francis Adams, the real-life son of John Quincy Adams. In life, Charles had been part of a religious tradition that among other things emphasized reason over formal doctrine and did not consider damnation to be permanent or Jesus to be God -- son of, perhaps, but not God. This didn't get him damned -- it was enough for him not to be considered a Christian, but he was otherwise morally upright enough to be placed among the virtuous pagans, whose Circle is essentially a terrestrial paradise. The reason he's down there now is because he marched up to Minos anyway and insisted on being judged as a Christian. The judge of the dead reluctantly dropped him off among the heretics, although he was not trapped inside a burning tomb and can wander free; he has spent his time since trying to talk others into redeeming themselves -- after all, he believes damnation to be temporary, and he was evidently not judged as a heretic, was he?
** Later, in the Bolgias, the group comes across Aimee [=McPherson=], a radio preacher of the Twenties and Thirties. When she came to Minos to be judged, she was meant to go to Purgatory -- she had sinned in life, repeatedly, but repented when it happened and honestly tried to serve God. She had made her living as a soulsaver on Earth and decided that she wanted to keep at it in the afterlife, and as such asked Minos to place her in Hell instead so that she could try to rescue the sinners there.

Living will mean his life gets inexorably worse as his friends die and his burdens grow heavier, that he'll take serious wounds and not die of them, and that his end will bring only more pain. Van then asks a follow-up question about what will happen to everyone he leaves behind if he dies, and finds that they will die sooner and in a fight. He refuses because he knows greater number than otherwise, that his country needs him.as he knows it will not long survive him, and so with great reluctance he chooses to live.
