EXACTLY!!! ... and that's why I can't figure out why we don't just leave each other alone and be peaceful. Whatever a single person believes, should be respected. NO ONE can argue about hell or where we go, etc., because NO ONE has been there and back to tell about it!!

Well, from the Christian point of view it comes down to creating a relationship with Jesus and accepting him in your life. Christians believe if you do this you won't go to hell. If you have not done this then you are going to be mounted by a pack of yaks in hell for all of eternity.
You have to accept the son of God into your life in order to not go to hell, but I do understand your being annoyed by some Christians who make a hairy thing out of themselves by telling you that you are going to hell. For some of them it's a power trip making it look like they have all the answers and you don't. Christians like those will populate most of hell.

We should never judge anyone or pretend to be qualified to say who is or is not going to hell....that is up to God. At the same, time, let us not confuse this with our Biblical mandate to "rebuke" and "correct" our brothers and sisters when they sin. For we are commanded also to do this...with gentleness and respect, of course.

It is always between the person and God. We have no right to judge unrighteously, but we do it anyway. I think that we need to stop finding faults with others and fix the faults within ourselves first.

Human nature and how people are raised... Judgment used to be a survival tactic (and still is at times), but now humans just use it to be mean and/or self righteous.

No one really knows if hell even exists, only those that have past on know, and I don't hear them telling any one about it.

Yes it is.
Judgement does nothing to move humanity forward.
Why not just create your own heaven here on earth?
Without judgement.
