[1] Lindhardt often commented publicly on developments in the Lutheran Danish state church.
Along with Jacob Holm, of the church Fredenskirken in Viby J, he held the opinion that Hell in the traditional concept does not exist, and that the Danish National Church's concept should instead regard a more universalist doctrine.
