Religion?
2007-12-24 12:01:32 · 13 answers · asked by Theban 5 in Society & Culture ➔ Religion & Spirituality
Nobody has come back from Heaven, Hell or the dead to acknowledge the truth. However if God punishes someone to eternity in Hell then is that God merciful? What happens to children who are born and die at a very age before realizing their religion, or the blind, deaf or the mentally handicapped who will never learn about the religion? Why did God make some wholesome and some defective? Everyone has a right to make his conclusions because these conclusions are based on our individual mental and spiritual ability. For the person who is intellectully challenged his way is the best.

It would appear you have been a victim of Christian propaganda and lies. I would suggest you get yourself a new Bible , there are about 40 or so that no longer use the word Hell .
What word are you translating as Hell ? sheol (Hebrew) , hades (Greek) , gehenna (Greek, from Hebrew), OR Tartarus ? None of these are Hell -: For example Hades is the brother of Zeus , who rules over the Greek mythical underworld .
All Jews , including Jesus ( if he existed ) have no concept of Hell , they have a Grave (sheol), ask your Jewish friends , assuming you are open-minded enough to have any.

NO. God makes it very clear we are damned to eternity in Hell because we have violated His moral Laws. Take a look the the 10 Commandments to see how many you've broken, and be honest with yourself. Then you will see your need for a Savior.

Romans 5:14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.
It does not matter all men are doomed to hell the second death for Adams sin.
Romans 5:17 For if by one man's offense death reigned by one; much more they who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)
But through Jesus you can be set free and have eternal life
This is the only option.

Nope. The Christian and Muslim concept of eternal torment doesn't come from Judaism. Their idea of hell comes from Zoroastrianism.

If you want to reject something, reject being Jewish. We don't believe in hell.
Shalom,
