the way I see it...theres a whole lot more people who aren't christian in the world than those that are. And if you aren't christian, then you must be going to hell. But does it really apply if you don't believe in Hell? It just seems...wrong to me that someone can believe that out of all the thousands of religions in the world, their's is the only one that is right.

Dear Phat,
The awesome uncreated Creator of the universe does not want anyone to be separated from Him eternally.
From the beginning of time mankind has been trying to jump through hoops of all kinds trying to get right in their own eyes. Nothing worked.
That is why God came in the flesh to show us the Way. There is only one Way but thank God there is one Way and that is Jesus Christ.
Draw near to the Lord. He loves you and wants you to know Him personally. Do you know that if you were the only sinner on the face of the earth, Jesus would have gone to the cross just for you?
Some years ago I received a copy of The Father's Love Letter by Barry Adams. Check out the interactive website at http://www.fathersloveletter.com
For His glory,

I am a Christian, but let's put that on the back burner. When I draw my last breath or if the Earth blows up, I want to go somewhere good. And when I get there, I don't want to be surrounded by the mean-spirited, cruel, people that hate, cold blooded killers and the like. What about you? The Earth can't last forever unless we do something fairly soon so what do we do? Just live hard lives here and expect nothing at the end? Or have to suffer forever with gangsters, thieves, pedophiles, and every other cruel thing people can do? I don't. I nearly died in 1992 and I know we get to go somewhere. I felt a peace and serenity I haven't felt since. I know there's something out there that's better but I don't think it includes human monsters.

Won't there be many hypocritical, judgemental Christians burning in Hell too? Anybody who's had sex outside of marriage? Yea, Christians are actually worse than the sinners they're supposed to be saving because they walk a double path.

250,000 people die every day. Of those, 175,000 are not Christian and go straight to hell. Of the ones left, probably another 25,000 were bad and also go to hell. So, about 200,000 PER DAY end up in hell.
I'm planning to be part of Satan's Army, and conquer heaven. We've got the numbers! Then all you god-believers will be sorry!
good thing it's all imaginary.

well no, in the christian sense, hell is just a huge cremation chamber, and just think of what is left after you cremate a human body and well a soul is like smaller than that, around the size of your spleen, so if you cremate that you get tiny tiny piles of ashes. And it's gonna take a LOT of ash to fill an average size room.

Yes, and interestingly enough, Hell is not a Jewish concept. It was never mentioned once in the "old testament", and it comes from the Greek concepts of hell, demons, good versus evil, et al.. it infiltrated that area after the Greek invasion(in the time between the testaments) and to this day, the jewish people do not believe in it. It's strictly a christian concept.

It seems wrong to me that out of all the infinitely many possible ways to solve this math problem, there's only one right answer: what is 1 + 1?
Well if I allow for large values of 1, I might get 3. If I don't know how to add, I might get 6. If I am just plain ignorant, I might tell you it's impossible to know...

some 67% of the world population is non-christian (but aware of the christian message, and implicitly rejecting it by following another religion). By their definition, they are all going to hell. Such a loving god.

Walking with God is the way to Heaven. Every culture has their own version of God but they all have the same underlying principles
