The fact is you will be finding many Christians in hell, the bible says that many who call themselves Christian will come before Jesus, saying Lord I did this and Lord I did that but Jesus will look at them and say I never knew you.

Oh, no, there will be plenty of Christians in hell wondering what happened. It isn't called a straight and narrow path for nothing. Jesus taught that few would enter into the straight and narrow. I think he really brought the point home with the parable of the 10 virgins. Obviously all 10 of them were Christian or they would not have been waiting for him in the first place. But only 5 were truly prepared to meet him.
I think that those who simply say that all you have to do to be save is declare that you believe in Christ represent the 5 that were left out. A simple declaration is not what Jesus taught, nor is it what the apostles taught.

A Christian is a person who excepted Jesus Christ as their Saviour and believes that Jesus died for their sins, and repents will go to heaven no matter what and that's not me talking that's the one true KJV Bible. There are people in hell that are religious but not born again saved Christians and there are people in Hell who never accepted the free gift of salvation.

Sure, but i dont understand the point of ur question, i mean were u trying to say we should have another name for it?
Do u think that just the fact that there will be no americans in some foreign city it is enough to call it by its name?
i would think so.

Any place with no Christians (or any other fantasy worshipers) would be called heaven. Although I believe if there really is a hell, it will be filled with disappointed Christians, Muslims and jews

Heaven and Hell is dependent on what we create in our present. If you believe in past lives then Hell will be an excess of negative energy in one's present life manifesting as a worse life after death.

....could be more like heaven.
No. I've found overall that there's just as many rude obnoxious people who say they're christians as rude obnoxious people who say they are atheists. Not to mention, wouldn't it be nice to be rid of people like Bush?

No hell is where the worm never dies.
MK 9:42 "And if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to be thrown into the sea with a large millstone tied around his neck. 43 If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go into hell, where the fire never goes out. 45 And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two feet and be thrown into hell. 47 And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell, 48 where
" `their worm does not die,
and the fire is not quenched.'

If by Hell you mean "a place that doesn't exist" then yes.

Well, I hear that prejudice is wrong, and you seem very unrepentant about it, so I would have to spend time with you,
which would be awful.
