You are not going to hell for being a non-christian

*sigh*
It is sad that Christians have forgotten that peace, love, harmony, and an ablity to think outside the box were prerequisites for the following of Christ.
They have also forgotten who is the final judge on heaven and hell.
On a lighthearted note-- of course, they allow innertubing in hell over the lake of fire. As soon as that rubber heats up and melts, then you fall into the lake and its mucho fun for everyone *s*

It is very possible to remain a Christian and follow the 8-fold path of Buddhism.
1. Right understanding
2. Right intention
3. Right speech
4. Right action
5. Right livelihood
6. Right effort
7. Right mindfulness
8. Right concentration
There is nothing there that conflicts with Christianity as long as you allow God (rather than philosophies of man) to define what is "right" in those eight situations.

No one would go to hell for believeing in peace love and harmony, but all men sin. Christ came to atone for sin.
The only way to heaven is through Christ.
I wonder if you're really a buddhist. The mocking tone of your question makes me a skeptic.
Perhaps you should try reading the new testament and see what Christ was all about and what he did for you.
John 8:31-32 says if you hold to His teaching you will know the truth and the truth will set you free.
Why not try it?

Read the book of Luke chapter 16 in the Bible and your answer will be in there. This is an account of what hell is. You do not want to go to hell because it is going to be pain, suffering and torture for all of eternity. There will be no way to get out. Please do the following things:
1. Admit that you are a sinner (Romans 3:10)
2. Be willing to turn from sin (repent) (Acts 17:30)
3. Believe that Jesus Christ died for you, was buried and rose from the dead. (Romans 10-9:10)
4. Through prayer, invite Jesus Christ into your life to become your personal Saviour. (Romans 10:13)
With this you will be saved from hell and your final destination will be heaven. The Bible says in John 3:3 (KJV) "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God." Those are the words of Jesus. In John 3:7 Jesus says "Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again." You need to born again or saved to be delivered from hell and to be destined for heaven. Please do this so that you will not have to go through this.

Its very simple, lets put a new twist to a very famous verse[s] John 3:16 & 14:15 For God [The Father] "SO" Loved the world that He gave [Jesus the second member of The Godhead gave Himself] that whosoever [you] should BE-LIVE in Him should not perish but have everlasting life, IF you Love Him keep His commandments [not suggestions] and IF you BE-LIVE in Him and Love Him enough to Keep His commandments you will be in heaven IF not you won't and Jesus Christ there is NO OTHER WAY to the father but by Him.

Oh, I wouldn't worry about bringing anything. If you plan on going into the lake of fire, it''ll be over too quickly to worry about sunscreen.

I wouldnt make light of Hell if I were you. I dont think you will be saying that when you come face to face with God on judgment day.

If you were a buddhist, you'd be aware of the motives for asking this question and would realize it was about the self and decide to drop it.
