hi
no but you don't have to stay with the beliefs you are born with. Hell in the bible is the common grave and not the hell of burning like in mythology. The bible says that Jesus died and went to hell for three days and then was ressurected, so since hell is the common grave that every dead person shares, yes you would have to there until the ressurection.

first of all, there is no hell.
hell was created by christians - so shall they go there, to their hell!
No, it would not be your fault if died before you were converted, but converted to What???
Here's How anyone, while they are still alive, can be better than atheists and religion:
Create a private, personal, direct, divine Relationship with Our Creator and save your Soul from religion.
Only with Our Creator's Love and Peace will we be Truly Free!
Without God, there is No Love; Without religion, there are No Wars!

Yes. Because God gives everyone many opportunities to hear about salvation through Jesus. You can be raised a Christian, but you still hear many other beliefs too. It is a choice all are given. Nobody can blame God if they go to hell. You can be sure they rejected the Truth many times when faced with it.

The true word of God is out there for all people to read and accept. Your all given freedom of choice to either accept God's word or reject it. Every one has a responsibility to seek out God's truth.
I was raised a Catholic and i am now a Christian. I found God's truth and turned away from the lies told to me for the first 11 years of my life. Praise the Lord!
All children who died before the age of accountiblity go to heaven for they are innocent. But once they know the difference between right and wrong that is another story. The age of accoutability varies from maturity of the indivitual child.

You have a chance at least once in your life to hear about Jesus and get saved , if you will. There are some people who have never heard , because of living in a far off place, they will be judged differently than someone who could turn on a radio, TV or pick up a bible and read about Gods plan for salvation.

2 Peter 2:1
[ False Teachers and Their Destruction ] But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves.
Jude 1:4
For certain men whose condemnation was written about [ Or men who were marked out for condemnation] long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are godless men, who change the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord.

good question, its a tough one.
if your partents always told you there is no God does not mean that thats what your going to believe. JUst like if Christain parents raise their children teaching them there is a God does not determine if they are going to heaven.
It's all about haveing a personal relationship with God. you have a choice, our "good" GOD makes that very clear. you can choose to live for HIM or decide to stay far from HIM. there is no middle road. You have the choice right now and if you choos the latter you are choosing the path to hell which is a sad reality but if you think about it, its very fair.
its like.. you can choose buy a car or not, if you choose to buy the car you have to pay for it(living your life for God) but you are rewarded with a car(heaven). If you choose not to buy the car(live your life for yourself) you get to live life without a car(eternal seperation from GOD)
i know thats not the best analogy but you get the point.
choose GOD and get life with GOD
Choose no GOD and get life without GOD
so essentialy, you should consider the choice right now and make it, you are obviously aware of the outcome of both choices and have the power to decide what you want.
GOD doesnt send people to hell, he lets them choose so go ahead and pick!

yeah people say if you don't know Jesus you go straight to hell. personally as a Christian I know He is a good God. We don't know what He does if it really isn't your fault and you die. He wants everyone saved so I believe somehow if you were a good person but never got to know Jesus then you'd still qualify for heaven. He's not that heartless ;)

Why even believe in a God that created us with the possibility that some of us could go to hell. Stick to been an athiest, you were doing better all along.

"For God's wrath is being revealed from heaven against all the ungodliness and wickedness of those who in their wickedness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God himself has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world his invisible attributes-his eternal power and divine nature-have been understood and observed by what he made, so that people are without excuse." (Romans 1:18-20)
Although God is indeed good, He is also Holy. If you lived your whole life denying that God existed, why would you expect Heaven?
