I believe the majority of non-believers would freely choose Hell over Heaven. Am I wrong?

Answer 1

Well you already know from the last question that I would choose hell as a matter of principle. It's not that I'd look forward to burning and torture....far from it. But it would be more difficult to live with myself as a hypocrite in Heaven, so I'd take whatever I had coming. It's an honest answer. I'm not being flippant, I have morals. What I lack is a belief in God.

Answer 2

Well, first of all, since they are "non-believers" they probably don't believe in hell or heaven, so that choice does not exist for them. If you are wondering if they were suddenly faced with a reality of heaven and hell, I do not think they would choose hell. I only recently stopped calling myself an atheist, and now do not refer to any religion. If I must give myself a religious title I would choose "neopagan". I do not believe in hell or heaven, but if I were to find that I am wrong in my belief, I would most certainly choose heaven.

Please people, stop being so ignorant of other religions. Since not everyone can be right, some of you have to be wrong. Just remember that.

Answer 3

You are absolutely wrong! Non-believers believe neither hell nor heaven. How could you say they would freely choose? If they got no other option however and need to choose where to go, they will probably toss a coin or do rock, paper and scisssors. They do such things, am I right? Have a good day!

Answer 4

Non-believers in what? If you aren't going to specify don't ask a question. There are many Hells and Heavens in alot of religions. If they don't believe there is nothing to choose over.

Answer 5

WILL I LOVE YOU DOESN'T THAT MEAN ANYTHING TO YOU?

One kind word, one kind smile, one gesture, is often enough to serve as a catalyst. We don't see it, but the world changes around us.

We are meant to pat each other on the back and offer happiness.

When we do, happiness is returned-- and encompasses us with a sort of heavenly energy.

That power may then manifest as something we really need, perhaps a healing, perhaps a change in attitude. And we can pass it on; we can transmit it. We are called to emulate angels. They are messengers of God's love and we are called to do the same.

Patience. Forbearance. Here is the stuff of angels. Think of all the times your guardian has stood by you despite your conduct. The Book of Proverbs tells us that "a patient man is better than a warrior, and he who rules his temper, than he who takes a city."

Answer 6

I think many non-believers love the things of this world more than the things of God. When this persists, the things of God become anathema to them, and the take the other option.
I have a friend, who is an atheist, who said that he didn't want to go to Heaven anyway since all we will do there is worship God and he hated going to church.

Answer 7

Quite wrong. The idea of eternal torment just isn't that appealing.

I would also rather deal with the easter bunny than the bogeyman, but it's a moot point, given that both are imaginary.

Answer 8

In other words you are saying they are too stupid to know the difference. I don't believe that at all. If faced with the truth and the ability to understand it, they would choose heaven.

Answer 9

I don't think most of the non-believers consider heaven or hell real, so they don't really bring either into consideration.

Answer 10

The non-believers don't believe in hell. How can they go somewhere that doesn't exist? Besides I'd rather go to hell than be stuck in heaven with all of the close-minded religous freaks.
