I would suggest that you read up on God and the different Christian faiths out there. And yes, whether you know it or not, God has done wonderful things for you just like he has for every single person in the world. Even after reading up on different beliefs and decide you dont believe any of it theres no point in faking it just to get out of going to hell. But as long as you are respectful and do good deeds to others I'm sure that you wont go to hell. o and always remember that having having a religion is based on FAITH. you dont always need hard evidence to believe in someting

Well, truth be told, no matter what religion you choose, there is certainly another that will exclude you from the promise of an afterlife. So, even if you were xyz religion, someone else thinks your going to hell.
But, who are they to say? Why do you think someone else knows more about religion than you do? Maybe they do historically, but from the perspective of an afterlife, no one here has ever been there!

If you believe there is a hell then you must believe that there is a God. Have you invited Jesus into your heart? The only way for eternal life is to take Jesus as savior. As far as God not doing anything for you he gave his only son to die on a cross for your sins, what else do you need?

More or less I do but....God hasn't done ANYTHING for you? Are you breathing? In good health that you can do reading, writing etc? Do you have a computer where you can go on line & write about what God hasn't done for you? Do you think you would feel this way if you were born & raised in Ethiopia? In regards to going to hell, 3 of the oldest religions in the world....Judaism, Hinduism & Zoroastrianism say that it's not your religion or lack of one that makes a difference of whether you get into heaven or not , it's your morals.

You are right here in hell now. When you die, you will be lifted to a higher place, full of love and compassion. No anger or bitterness, no negative vibes, just positive happy energy all around you.
So try and make the most of your life down here, be at one with your self, learn to forgive and let go. Be nicer to people, help out in times of need. You will feel much better for it and it will make your journey to the heavens a peaceful one.
Good Luck!

No, If you are breathing God made it happen. And yes hell is a place you should be very afraid of going to, so don't go.

If you are afraid of going to hell, then it sounds like you believe in God in one way or another. Find out more of what you don't understand.

Well if you don't believe in God you might as well find an incinerator somewhere and jump in it while it's on and find a way to relax in there. And find ways of enjoying it for long periods of time.
Lu:16:19: There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
Lu:16:20: And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,
Lu:16:21: And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.
Lu:16:22: And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;
Lu:16:23: And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
Lu:16:24: And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
Lu:16:25: But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
Lu:16:26: And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.
Lu:16:27: Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:
Lu:16:28: For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
Lu:16:29: Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
Lu:16:30: And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.
Lu:16:31: And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

You have reached a crossroad.
The Lord has made you aware.
God is not inclined to do anything for anyone.
Jesus said "Do this in memory of me"
What do people expect from God?
Christians need to focus prayer on what is vital; health, parents, loved ones, friends.
Focus your prayers on others, that they may have the blessing of faith that you have received so freely.

How can you say He hasn't done anything for you? Your alive aren't you, good health, roof over your head, clothes on your back, shoes on your feet , and food on your table, What are you expecting? What have you done for Him is the question?
Your not fooling no one but yourself, He already knows your heart.
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
John 6:47, Jesus says:
" Truly, Truly, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
John 14:6, Jesus says:
" I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me"
Mark 16:16 says:
"He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned."
I'll be praying.
