And babies who die really young? Because they don't understand religion when they're really little, right? What about animals, since animals aren't religious? What about people who are atheists that really made a difference, like Marie Curie? I believe in God, but I'm really confused.

Reincarnation occurs to all until they have experienced all karma (good and bad) and seek to find their way back home (heaven). When the student is ready, the teacher appears. All will eventually ascend back into the kingdom of Heaven

I'm sure you can get some good answers on your interesting questions, either here, or by doing a Google search. I'd just like to address two points:
1. What about people who are atheists that really made a difference, like Marie Curie? When God comes to earth, our "difference" won't matter.... the advance of science won't matter.... all that will matter is whether we are saved, and, if we are, whether or not we have helped others find salvation.
2. If you are worried about those who have not heard, do as much as you can to make sure they hear. Tell others about what Christ did for you!

The Bible teaches that each and absolutely everyone that have an ear will hear the observe of God, then the top will come. Now even 0.33 international international places have a radio, t.v. and a few even have the internet. the internet reaches everywhere that's international huge. that should coach us in basic terms how close the Returning of our Lord is. All toddlers belong to God, they're a recent from God, and those that are to youthful to understand the flaws of God are seen harmless interior the eyes of God and could return to the daddy upon their death, The toddlers alive on the time of the Rapture of the Church will circulate interior the Rapture, there mothers and fathers if residing lost and function no longer repented would be left at the back of to undergo the wrath of God however the youngsters will circulate interior the Rapture. human beings that did die as adults earlier the internet and radio, will return to the daddy, via fact they are going to be stumbled on unknowing and harmless in basic terms like a toddler. They belong to the daddy and could return to the daddy.

Satan believes in God to. That's not enough, belief.
The man possessed by a legion, knew Jesus when he saw him, but yet they were still cast out. You can't just say that you believe in God. You have to accept him, turn your life over to him, accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior to be saved.
I know it is difficult and confusing, but it's all about having faith. I know you can't see him, but you can look around you and see all the good that comes from him. Yes I know there is evil surrounding us too, but who do you think that comes from? Not God. God gives everyone free will to do what they want. It's up to each individual person to choose to do right or wrong.
AS for atheists, the bible informs us that 'works' will not get us into heaven. So just because someone was really good or made a difference in the world, doesn't mean they are going to heaven.
There is only one way and that is through Jesus. Again, the bible states.
As for those who don't believe the bible, they need more proof, or call us lunatics because we believe in something that we can't actually see, then their future is sealed. Their eternity will not be pleasant.
As for animals, they do not have souls that need to be saved. However, (again) the bible speaks of that Jesus will be riding a horse from the clouds above when he returns.
Just have faith in Jesus and let everything else go. God will tend to all of that when he is ready.

People who were never allowed or had the chance to hear the Gospel will get the chance to hear it when they die. Babies are taken to God as they have had no chance to sin. Animals also have not received the knowledge that we humans have and there by will not be judged on the same standard that man is. I am not sure if a dog that kills a man just because he by his nature is mean will receive the same judgment as a dog that saves a man or not. One thing is for sure they will not have the same needs as far as baptism or other ordnance's that we do. God has stated animals will be saved. We all will be judged upon our works, and that includes many Atheists, who have done good works will receive a place in one of the kingdoms of heaven that far exceeds one that a christian who does not do good work even if he does truly believe in Jesus. I know some of that seems confusing as far as most churches teach. But in the LDS church the teaching clarifies many of the questions like that. If you want to know more Email me and I will supply you information how to find the answers.

well...we don't really know all the answers and I know it can be confusing sometimes. I would imagine that since babies haven't commited sin yet...they're okay and haven't been tainted by the world yet. The bible doesn't really say if animals go to Heaven or not...but remember that we were made in the likeness of God...they werent. Also, I believe that atheists don't go to Heaven. God created an amazing kingdom for us...and all we have to do is except Jesus Christ as our saviour to get in. Jesus is the only way we can be forgiven from our sins...and all people are sinners. So if somebody doesn't repent and believe that Jesus Christ died to save our sins...they can't go to Heaven because they aren't forgiven.
...as for your confusion...it can be understandable at first. Just look to the bible and remember to pray frequently for wisdom and God will show you the way. He loves you and he wants you to follow him.... when i was finding Christ a friend of mine told me about an analogy by C.S. Lewis in one of his books....
when we are in the womb we cannot possibly fathom what life in the world is like and about driving and working and all that because we have never been exposed to it. Then once we are on earth and understand all that we cannot possibly understand the greatness of God and the kingdom of Heaven....
so I know that that helped me and i hope it helps you!

God's word states all will hear the word of God before the return of Jesus. Babies are not held accountable. Humans are born with a soul and when you die, your body returns to ashes but your soul lives on either in Heaven or Hell. Animals do not have souls. And the people that have made a differences & I have known good people, but you cannot earn your way to Heaven, only through repentance & belief of God the Father, the Son Jesus & the Holy Spirit.

I think God takes children, regardless. The age may vary, for accountability reasons, but a really young baby, it seems to me, would go to heaven. If God takes animals, I think they all go to heaven. If a person is an atheists, I'm sorry, but I think they must go to hell. The Bible says that the only way to heaven is through Jesus Christ. If you don't believe in Jesus Christ and the salvation He offers, then you don't go to heaven. People who haven't heard about God or Christ? I think that's up to God. I always wonder about the Jewish. They are God's chosen people, yet they deny that Jesus is the Messiah. What happens to them? Do they go to hell because they don't believe in Jesus? We won't ever really know the answers to these questions until we die. It's impossible for a human to understand the way God works. They are interesting questions, though.

God will judge according to what one knows. If they have never heard the Gospel then they will be judged according to how they lived there life.
New born Baby's go straight to Heaven, not having to be judged.
We don't know about how God will be with animals, but we do know that there will be animals in heaven.

Babies go to Heaven, children up to the age of accountability go to Heaven. Folks who have not heard the gospel, ever in their entire lives will be fairly judge by God, as to their level of understanding. Animals, I don't know, I am trusting God to care for our furry friends in His kindness, He made the animals so He must love them more than we do. Any human being who has heard the gospel and rejects it will not be in Heaven, because they are sinners from birth, it doesn't matter all your good deeds. If you are relying on being good enough, then you must be perfect. That means all the OT laws too. If you broke one you are guilty of sin. Jesus, gives you eternal life, trust in Him to lead you to Heaven. God is not the author of confusion, Satan is. Get into The Word of God and pray. Try a bible study at www.ttb.org

I think that anyone who lives out their life in a positive way and helps the world become even an immeasurably small amount better will go to Heaven, and those who have had no conscious life to live may be reincarnated for a fuller one. God surely wouldn't be unreasonable to the point of forcing all of humanity to believe in something that cannot be proven...
