If a man is born on island with other people on it, lived a long life, learned to farm, love, create, destroy and rebuild. But never was taught the word of God, no image, no praying, no worship, no book. Just the Sun, rises everyday and the night that follows, thats all he knows, when he dies does he go to Heaven/Hell.

When someone asks a question such as this I think of a Christian, German concentration camp guard at Auschwitz in 1944. He has a loving family who he takes to church every Sunday without fail. On this day, he is leading a family of Jews to their deaths in the gas chamber. Here's where things get confusing for me. According to the bible, all the German guard must do is accept Jesus as his savior and the son of god and ask for forgiveness of this terrible sin of multiple murders of innocent victims, and he will dwell in heaven forever when he dies after living a long and fruitful life. The innocent Jewish family, however, because they don't believe just as the German does, after having their lives cut miserably short and not allowed to bring up children have, grandchildren and enjoy the other niceties of life like the German will enjoy, will burn in hell for eternity. That's just sick man.

If religion is true, he's going to hell because he did not worship God. But then again, God has a devine plan, so he might go to heaven. Then again God wants everyone to know who is all powerful, so he's going to hell. Then again... (I can go on like this for hours, short and simple, religion is a bunch of bs, when we die, our bodies rot in the ground and nothing more.)

SCEINTIFIC FACT
Life is energy and all energy of any kind becomes another form of energy in time.
Is this then the soul?ghosts?A short lingering of conciousness before yet again becoming something else?
Many christian sects deny the possibility of ghosts because this flys in the face of heaven/hell theory .When you die you dont wander about scaring the wits out of the living you go to heaven or hell period.
Christians who beleive in ghosts are contradicting themselve on this point without realizing it.
The concept of spirits heaven hell go back to ancient pagan religions and in order to convert those people to christianity many beleifs were adopted by early evangelists and given a christian "flavor".
There is more paganism in our one GOD christian beleifs than we care to admit.

The sad thing is that it doesn't have to be an island, there are 4 billion people in this situation now and billions more in the past. What does this say about god?

I think he will go to Heaven.
The reason I think this can be found in your question - "has learned to love"
God is love and for someone to learn to love, he must respond to the call of God to love one another. He may have a very limited knowledge of God, but if he loves, he knows God and will meet Him in Heaven.

God will determine that.
Just because a man is alone, God still can determine where his heart is and how he lived his life. You even said yourself the man lived long enough to love. We all know Love is important to God.
Take Care!

Yes. but I kind of believe that somewhere within these people,
there would be a sense of Him. Very interesting question, though.

He goes to purgatory because he never rejected Christ. There, he is purified by God.

Neither.
He rots in a box -- or in this case, on the beach, since there's no one to bury him.
The Afterlife is imaginary.
