Yes and so are you along with everybody else, including Christians. I am a Christian by the way. All go to hell at death.The original Hebrew word was Sheol and the Greek word was Hades, properly translated they mean: the grave or a pit.Another word also translated as hell was Gehenna(Greek),this is an actual place now known as the Hinnom Valley in Jerusalem. This is a place that always had a fire and they burnt trash, animal carcasses, and live babies were sacrificed to molech the great owl god. Look at a map its on there. In Psalm 16:10, & 49:15 David knew he was going to hell (grave) and would be resurected from it.Many of the older Bibles such as Geneva properly translated these words as grave or pit. It is impossible to have three totally different words and translate them all as hell. In the 1600's when the KJV Bible was made ,the meaning of the word hell was to put in the ground so when they changed the wording to hell they understood what it meant.If you look up Gehenna in Websters dictionary today you will see it tells you the same thing I said. Apparently its to difficult for most Christians to actually look up the meaning of a word, they prefer to listen to the lies that their preacher spews from the pulpit. My God will put you in hell when you die,the grave, and regardless of your beliefs or how you lived you will be resurected for judgement. To receive eternal life you must know Christ as saviour, if not you will be thrown into the lake of fire Rev. 20:14,this is the second death, where people are consumed instantly and permanently. No eternal suffering and torment.I am a Christian and I think its a shame that churches use these kind of scare tactics to keep people in church. Look at below website for many other anti-church / pro-God topics.
Edit
Megami of Nekro, I am a Christian and I will be in hell with you. True Christians don't believe in all that church garbage. ps: glad you came back.

Hell no!! I don't believe in it. I live my life as the best person I can by thinking for myself and treating others with respect. I don't need a book to tell me how to do that, I just follow my heart & gut. I was raised going to church & being afraid of hell, but once I started thinking for myself & being a good person because I know it's right and not because I'm afraid of some being, I became a much happier person.

I guess that would depend on ones god or goddess and ones beliefs. I will say yes there is a hell for each belief in each kind of religion.Where we go will be left up to the god that is the one that prevails. It is not my place to say if I live my life the way I think I should the I would hope not but that would not be up to me where I end up. I really do not want to know anytime soon.

Im not going to Hell that is the place for the unrighteous people
1Corinthians 6:9 Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
Revelation 21:8 "But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars-- their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death."
2Th 1:7 and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels.
8 He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.
9 They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of his power
Those who are guilty of these things will not be with God for eternity but be seperated from Him. That is unless we obey the Gospel and live a righteous life for God. If you would like to know how to obey the Gospel e-mail me or go to www.whatsaves.com God bless

no, but ppl get it mixed.
There r wo types of hell. There is one that exists now, that is wher ppl go if they havent accepted Jesus Christ. But after Christs returns, there will be a judgement day. And after that day the same people who r not saved will be thrown into a lake of fire along with satan and his demons. 2 hells, the last being eternal lake of fire. We will all be judged tho, but If u have accepted Christs sacrifice, your judgement will decide what 'gifts' u will receive.

If I die, yes I am going to hell. Why? Because that is where Jesus went when he died. Acts 2:27. Because that is where Lazarus went before Jesus resurrected him. Because that is pretty much where all people go when they die.
