Is it fair?

Question

that mother Theresa will be treated the same as Paris Hilton in heaven? Apparently, Paris Hilton found God while she was in prison. Presumably, everyone is equal in heaven, so mother Theresa spends her life helping the sick, and Paris Hilton lives the life of a super rich party girl, and God treats them both equally. Not to mention the fact he will be giving several converted serial killers (such as David Berkowitz and Jeffrey Dahmer) and all of the paedophile Catholic priests the same treatment of course. Does this seem fair?

Answer 1

"Is it fair?
"that mother Theresa will be treated the same as Paris Hilton in heaven?"

Since heaven exists only in myth, it's a moot point. However, I think it would be a shame, if there were a heaven, for "Mother Teresa" to be treated as well as Paris Hilton. After all, Paris Hilton is only a silly child, whereas, "Mother Teresa" was a piece of dirt con artist.

Answer 2

If life was FAIR you would be arrested and fined for every single crime you ever got away with in life.Every time you went 1 mile per hour over the speed limit. Every stop sign every dime you didnt report to the IRS every single little thing.
If life were fair you would have been caught. SO thank God life aint Fair.
Have you ever considered that Maybe God does DO overs. Reincarnation.
I have. I have done it ALL> every saintly act and every dastardly deed I have done in a past life from Bacteria to Deity/.Criminal to saint.
Therefore I can judge NO one having done it all Myself. What happens to them is not my business. My business is How I treat them. If I ever want to make it myself to Heaven.

Answer 3

A person's good works does not gain heaven for them.
It is our sins that separate us from God and we are all sinners.
Jesus, made the way for us to spend eternity with Him by coming to pay the penalty for our sins by dying for them.
He was buried and resurrected from the dead. Those who admit they are sinners, and repent (change thinking to God's way) and accept Jesus' payment will have eternal life.
It's really not fair that anyone should go to heaven, but then, God in His mercy and justice made a way that we could be reconciled to Him. Another question to ask would be: is it fair for one without sin to pay for the sins of others?

not sure what you mean "common". common relies upon on what her husband's income replaced into, I mean he's a rich guy, probably would not miss $50M yet frequently in a divorce the money is going for the newborn. a woman gets alimony on condition that she had no income or activity of her very own and Heather does have a occupation of her very own. yet probably their tax gadget would take 0.5 of that, and that i do no longer understand if $25M would save that newborn in the type she is conscious of (probably had a great abode, nanny, clothing, toys, training, transportation) and that i'm particular McCartney would need his newborn to maintain residing in luxury. i'm not sure if the courts would enable Heather to revisit the courtroom if her newborn needed extra or no longer. i'd think of particular. i understand Heather asked for extra money, and have been given much less. She needed extra protection for her and her daughter.

Answer 5

Actually, Mother Theresa was some what evil in that she felt the sick and dying should suffer.

Answer 6

The answer to your question can be found in the parable of the workers in the vineyard.

Answer 7

Nobody said life was fair.

Matthew 20:1 For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard.
2 And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard.
3 And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace,
4 And said unto them; Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went their way.
5 Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise.
6 And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle?
7 They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, that shall ye receive.
8 So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the labourers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first.
9 And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.
10 But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny.
11 And when they had received it, they murmured against the goodman of the house,
12 Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day.
13 But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst not thou agree with me for a penny?
14 Take that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even as unto thee.
15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good?
16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.

Answer 8

we don't know how God judges people most especially those who committed grave crime..
as for paris hilton.. she's still alive so i guess it's not fair to compare her to a dead saint..

Answer 9

Life is not fair, but we do not actually know what happens in heaven, if there is a heaven, so we can't actually say what happens.

Answer 10

Yeah but when they asked her what her favorite bible verse was, the blank look of panic on her face was priceless. She found God about as much as I discovered cold fusion.
