I could accept that there is a hell (though I am not sure if I do) and that there are some people in it, but not very many. My goal was not to shake your faith blaze, just to make you think about it. I suggest that when you do this study you read books that agree AND disagree with your point of view. I try to do that with various topics so I know why other people think what they do and hey maybe I can be convinced otherwise on things.

I also believe that God is just, fair, and loving. For me that is the core of this whole issue. If the stipulation is that only people who believe that Jesus is the son of God and died for us go to heaven and everyone else goes to hell to burn forever than I cannot see how the thing we agree on can be true.

If this was true than lots and lots of people who never had the choice to believe that would be in hell. That was the point of my list of people who would be in hell if this is true, children, people born before Jesus, etc...

Food for thought: In the parable the man who went to hell went for his actions not his beliefs.
