No.
If someone is presented Gods Saving Grace correctly & that person rejects Gods Truth & Love, that person has rebelled against God.
Whosoever calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved. This can be done on ones death bed. Because when someone is close to dieing, they think about the past and decide whether to repent, etc... So, even if one repents at the end of life, confessing Jesus Christ their Lord & Savior w/heart faith in Resurrection, that person will be born of God, redeemed by His blood.
Agnostics don't believe in the physcial resurrection. They will have to repent for not believing Jesus raised up an everlasting body. So, you must believe in your heart the resurrection from the dead.
If they refuse to believe then they will end up in hell fire, the degree dependent on their sins. No one is in the Lake of Fire yet, and won't be for a long time. The first one in is the beast & false prophet & they will be tormented forever. The Lake of Fire is the second death. At the Great White Throne Judgment death & hell will give up the dead in them. Then the person will be judged according to works (conscience & land laws). Those whose names are not found written in the books of life are thrown into the Lake of Fire.

I can't believe in a God who allows people to burn forever in torment and I know plenty of others who share my opinion. What would be the point? Talking to people, I'm seeing that some belive that hell is not an eternal place. Once you're sins are paid for, its over. I do know that the idea of judgement and hell is the leading cause for atheism etc. I'm an agnostic myself, but I'm searching for what seems to be the truth and is utimately fair and fufilling. To do this, I'm simply observing life.

Nope, because the lake of fire is a non-existent place.
After death, our atoms take on new structures and become a part of this earth all over again, perhaps recycled into microbes and other life. All part of who were were, including our brains (consciousness, memories, and personality) will not exist because the structure will no longer be there.

Why worry about that when there's work to do today? Anyone who is more concerned with whether they'll get punished later than whether they do good today seems more likely to end up in this "lake of fire" you refer to. Just be nice for the sake of being nice.

I'm not sure what to believe about agnostics. I don't think I'll send agnostics to the lake of fire, maybe the lake of fire water though.
Praise me, amen.

i believe the Lake of Fire has received some rather bad publicity over the years, i consider it more of a deluxe spa situation and as long as the champagne and babes keep flowing ... I'm in.

Is the 'Lake of Fire' near the 'Bad Boys Farm', or down the road from Iraq's WMD Program?

I think you're trying to persecute atheists, not agnostics. Because agnostics are closer to you than atheists are.
But to answer your question.....
Have you ever seen this "Lake of Fire"? And have you ever seen anyone swimming in it? I doubt it. Some guy who wrote the bible told you...... You believe everything you read?

Since the "Lake of Fire" has no evidence of any kind to support its existence, and is almost certainly nothing but a myth...no.
And neither will anybody else.
Peace.

Seeing as there is no such place, and nothing of us left when we die to go anywhere anyway, I would have to say not. Besides, agnostics can be theists.
