Human spirit v. Religion?

Question

When many non-Christians are asked whether they think everyone who is not a Christian is going to burn in hell, considering that more than half of the people in the world are not Christians, they respond by saying things like, “We cannot know how God will judge them” and “only God can judge he who has not given himself to Christ.” But a few minutes later, when someone asks a question and says that Allah is the only true God, Christians tell them that they are going to hell. So do we know or do we not know who is going to hell? I’m pretty sure that, at least some parts of the Bible say that non-Christians will go to hell. You would think this would make it a simple question/answer. However, the problem is that Christians, like non-Christians, have a conscience. They know, at least in the back of their mind, that only a Hitler-like God would cause someone to burn in hell even if they had been a good person, but had picked the wrong God to worship. Unfortunately, the Bible says that non-Christians will burn in hell. So Christians give a vague, plead the 5th answer. Christianity demands that the human forgo reason and empathy for their fellow human being and think like a robot. The problem is that the human spirit is often too powerful to be overtaken by religious programming. This results in the inconsistencies often shown by Christians.

Answer 1

I was told once that ALL people, even those people in New Guinea who have never seen anybody but each other, are confronted by God and Jesus and given the choice to believe or not. So, those people would not go to hell if they accepted Jesus. I never understood how that could happen, though. And I never understood why God would send those people to hell for not believing in Him when they had never heard the word of God, and it says clearly in the Bible that people who do not believe in Him will not go to heaven.

That's why I'm not really a Christian anymore. I believe in the Christian/Muslim/Jewish GOD, but not necessarily the theology behind it. I guess I would lean more in the direction of being Jewish if it came down to it, but I need to research it more to see if it fits with my beliefs.

Answer 2

I agree that no one in this world can know how would GOD judges the humans and who will go to heaven or hell.
Each relegion teachings suppose that this relegion is the only true one and there is something very bad is waiting for the people who did not choose to follow it.
But I believe that only God who knows where everyone of us will go. We know there is a heaven and there is a hell but in no way we can know where we would go!!
Personally, I think it is all about how we behave towards ourselves and towards others...how do we treat eachother...what attitude do we have about all things around us. are we good with our parents, family, neibours, work colleages, people in the street... and people those have different faiths than ours... I think God will gauge us about our attitude and bahaviour whatever our faiths are... the point is to be a good person and that's all about!
