Gandhi would most likely be in hell....while it's entirely possible that Charlie Manson and Ted Bundy might go to heaven?

I agree, and you forgot to mention Jeffery Dahlmer along with a few others. However, I don't think that Charles Manson will make it in. He isn't a Christian, is he?
I'm editing ... hold on ....
One point I'd like to make is that if anyone follows the creed of what Jesus stands for, then they are following in His path, and I think Ghandi did that, didn't he? If so, he has a good chance of making it into heaven IMHO.

So I'm guessing you're another theology buff, hmmm?
It seems strange because it is a straw man. Logical fallacies often seem strange to people. But strangeness prompts most people to dig a little deeper into the primary sources.

Actually, no Christian dare make any such "call". We shall all face the "Last Judgment" - and that Judgment is God's alone.
Charles Manson was a Scientologist, and Mahatma Gandhi knew more about Christianity than 98% of Christians who profess it.

Not at all when you understand Scripture and the God of the Bible. Salvation is not based on what we do on this earth, but solely on God, His election and choosing. He decides who comes into His Heaven, not us. Ghandi was a Hindu, who denied the existence of the God of the Bible and salvation through Christ. There would be no reason for God to allow Him in based on what he believed. God chooses who are His based on His grace, mercy and love, not on who we are or what we do. God is not obligated to save anyone, it is purely by His grace and for His good pleasure.

If Christians could provide an example of a Heaven worthy creature, as per their own criteria, it would be the Balrog....

The current precept of Christianity is a bastardization of the actual thing Men have put their fingers in the pot to long for me to believe in any religion.

If there is a heaven, I would think we're all going there. Meting out vengeance to people who were sick in the head seems a very human need to me.

Someone asked "In the afterlife, would you rather be Ghandi who did not accept Jesus or Hitler if he did accept Jesus".
Most Christians said they'd rather be Hitler than Ghandi.
God bless America!

All men were made sinners by the sin of Adam. So saying Ghandi was without sin is incorrect.
