apparently he wasn't a christian and the only path to heaven is through the jesus, so where is he if he isn't in heaven? where are stone age people? it doesn't seem fair that they never even stood a chance...

People seem to be forgetting that Heaven is not a 'reward' for good people. The Kingdom of Heaven is where God resides, so why would non-Christian want to go there anyway? As for Hell, the reason Christians shouldn't want to go there is obvious but we don't really know what it is like seen as how nobody has ever come back and told us.
The sad fact is, Heaven and Hell were used as a carrot and stick measure to get people to behave in the middle ages because the feudal system stated that God had appointed the monarch so you had to obey them or got to Hell.

*laughing* Well, for a Christian, yeah, that's the only path. But Gandhi was Hindu, and everyone has a different God. I don't believe even Christ would send a person to hell because someone didn't believe in him. God is not so self-centered a to do that. And I don't think he wanted to be in heaven. I think he wanted to be free from rebirth, like most Hindus. His ashes are probably in the Ganges River, or the Kaveri River. ~coming from a Hindu~

I don't want to argue about Gandhi's after death residence, but would like to say that he was hero of his time. You can say it was his compulsion to follow the path of nonviolent since the British raj was to too strong to be dethroned by him.
It was the II world war and the movements by Hot leaders like Subhash chandra Bose, Chandrashekhar Azad and Bhagat singh that weekened the British govt and forced them to withdraw from India.
No one goes to hell or heaven, its their deeds which gives them respect in life and after that.
Already Indian Politician and Beaurocarats have shadowed the image of Gandhi with their deeds. Do you require another Gandhi now?

I suppose if you believe the Christian afterlife is the only 1 then he is.
As a none Christian I believe that every faith has it's own afterlife so Gandhi will be wherever Hindu's go after death (I have little knowledge of the Hindu faith so cannot tell you what they believe.)

Gandhi, like all the dead, is asleep waiting for the return of Jesus. Those who don't know Jesus will be judged on the light that they received and how they respond to the Holy Spirit in their lives (even the ancient pre-Christians had movings of the Holy Spirit). We know not the ways of God, but we are responsible for obeying God when we have been given an understanding and have turned our hearts (minds) over to him.
God bless!

dead. he was shot
this is from a site about him
That evening, as Gandhi's time-piece, which hung from one of the folds of his dhoti [loin-cloth], was to reveal to him, he was uncharacteristically late to his prayers, and he fretted about his inability to be punctual. At 10 minutes past 5 o'clock, with one hand each on the shoulders of Abha and Manu, who were known as his 'walking sticks', Gandhi commenced his walk towards the garden where the prayer meeting was held. As he was about to mount the steps of the podium, Gandhi folded his hands and greeted his audience with a namaskar; at that moment, a young man came up to him and roughly pushed aside Manu. Nathuram Godse bent down in the gesture of an obeisance, took a revolver out of his pocket, and shot Gandhi three times in his chest. Bloodstains appeared over Gandhi's white woolen shawl; his hands still folded in a greeting, Gandhi blessed his assassin: He Ram! He Ram!

If you are stating that the way toward God is only way, you have misquoted the verse. Jesus is ask a question about the way, he answer the way, the truth, and the life.
Gandhi is dead. Whatever you may believe or not believe really doesn't matter. Gandhi is still dead.
