Christianity is a lot easier way to the fullness of life or eternal life. Which means God has come to us in Jesus instead of us climbing up our way to heaven. To those who haven't heard of God, we believe that God, from the beginning of time and space, has planted a seed in every soul so that this can become a guide and a fire for him/her to continually look and live in truth. So, if God is truth, then if these people, who may not have named or defined or identified their God as we do, live in truth and justice are living in and with God as well.

Whereas, Hell is the road taken by people, even if they are still alive and worse if they die, who have full knowledge and consciously aware of the existence of God and then choose not to believe and not to live in Him.

Hell is a concept that was invented by some zealous religious leaders a long time ago. Its purpose was to scare people into living a better life. Afterlife is NOT a place where you go but a way of being in a spiritual sense. A to the GOD concept, a lot could be and has been said about it. You shouldn't see GOD as a person but as a kind of corporate entity with many facets. Science has yet to define GOD but most scientists admit that there is something above our understanding. Hope this helps.

People who have never heard of God will not go to Hell. In fact, there is no such thing as Hell in the Bible. Many people confuse Gehenna and Hades to be Hell, when Gehenna was really a fire pit for garbage in ancient Jerusalem used to signify, at times, eternal destruction, without hope of ever existing again (Matthew 5:22), as well as Hades (in Hebrew, Sheol) was simply the Greek name for the common grave of mankind. (Psalm 16:10) (Ancient myths believed it also to be the name of the god of the underworld, but this has never been proven to be beyond myth).

What will happen to those who do not call upon God's name because they don't know of Him, then? The Bible talks of a resurrrection of the righteous and the unrighteous (Acts 24:15). These unrighteous are those who would be ignorant of God's Word and unable to be judged in this system by their works. They are not to be confused with the wicked, who will be done away with (Psalm 37:10).

That depends on what you believe "hell" is. The Bible speaks of hell as the common grave of mankind. Jesus himself was in hell for three days and was then resurrected out of hell into heaven.
(Acts 2:27; Acts 2:31)
All in hell will be resurrected back to life on earth for final judgement (Revelation 20:13 )
Hell will be done away with along with our "enemy" death. (Revelation 20:14 )
THe Psalmist said this about hell at Psalms 139:8: "If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there."
When you die, you are in a deep sleep without dreams. Jesus said death is like sleeping. (John 11:11-14) God is not torturing anyone and would never do so.
So all who die, good and bad go to hell (grave)

I believe that those who seek the Truth will find it, otherwise God will judge each man according to His knowledge. Who goes to hell or heaven is not mine to contemplate...

As for "Asia"...

"The first Christian Orthodox mission to China was undertaken by the holy Apostle St Thomas, who preached The Holy Gospel to the peoples of China in the first century. Unfortunately his mission had little success, but nevertheless China received the holy blessing of the Apostle."

Sorry, but according to Christianity, yes. Along with the Hindus, Muslims, Jews, Bhuddists, etc. Doesnt' make sense to me either. Espcially because most of the worlds religions are older than Christianity itself. It's scare tactics,

even as the Bible does recommend the concept that culpability is a function of one's expertise, it really is likewise genuine that each and each has a level of wide wide awake information both easily one of God and of one's sin. "For because the creation of the international God’s invisible characteristics— his eternal ability and divine nature— were obviously considered, being understood from what has been made, so as that adult males are with out excuse." Rom one million:20 "even as Gentiles, who do not have the regulation, do by skill of nature issues required by skill of the regulation, they're a regulation for themselves, even inspite of the actuality that they don't have the regulation, considering they instruct that the criteria of the regulation are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their recommendations now accusing, now even protecting them." Rom 2:14,15 In different words people will be judged by skill of what they do recognize and what they're attentive to. Be seeing as people more often than not do not even stay as a lot as their own criteria, now to not instruct God's, i don't have a lot wish for them. For "Salvation is recent in no human being else, for there isn't any different call lower than heaven given to adult males by skill of which we should be kept." Ac 4:12

You are kind to the people and the world you live in, no matter what you believe in, heaven is waiting for you.

No one is the same, and different religions are only someone's point of view, but the main idea is still there. There is a higher being.

No I don't believe that because that is not what the Bible says. We are in a time when the Word is spreading faster than ever before across the world.

I have a hard time believing that there are "rules" to get into the afterlife. Perhaps it's the reverse of Survivor... the people already there vote you in?
