Why do Chrisitans think that everybody else is going to hell?

I believe that, if there is a God, he would be accepting enough to allow all good people into heaven, no matter their religion, race, age, or beliefs.\n\nBesides, why does it matter what happens when we're dead?  You shouldn't spend your life waiting for heaven, when this is the life that truely matters.  People spend their lives looking to God for all the answers instead of figuring out things for themselves.  Find your own answer to life, quit begging God to do it for you.\n\nFinally, people shouldn't be fighting over religion.  It's stupid.  Believe in what you want to believe in, and quit arguing with people over whose religion is right.  It's a fight that will never, ever win.  From what I've heard of God, he's all-forgiving, or something like that.  I highly doubt he'd condemn Jews or Muslims or Christians or whatever to hell if they're wrong.\n\nBut I'm an atheist, so what do I know? ;)\n\nSorry that I rambled a bit and got a little preachy.  It's late.

It's amazing.   No wonder people turn their backs on religion.  When you get remarks like this, it's no wonder why gay people will not listen to Christians.  Simply put, they are tired of being put down all the time.   If you could actually talk to one, and explain to them why YOU think it's wrong, than they might listen to you, if you were to be non-judgemental, and listen to them.  \n\nInstead of just saying you are going to hell, you better be able to back up any statements you make.  For example, don't tell me the bible says so.  PROVE to me that the bible says so, and we might have common ground to stand on.   I personally will not listen to some hypocrite who tells me that I am going to hell because the bible says so.  All I hear is blah, blah, blah.     Amazing, how Christians are the first people to usually judge someone else, although Christ commanded "Do not Judge."   See Ezekiel 7:27, , Matt 12:36, John 8:15, Romans 2:1-5.

The same reason all other sinners go to church.

You are much mistaken on many of your "if you do this then you go to hell" comments.  Those who go do hell are those who do not have faith in Christ for the forgiveness of their sins.  Christ is the answer to the sin problem.  Those who go to hell are the ones who do not take hold of the answer.  They try to solve their sin problem by some other means.\n\nKeep reading the Bible to find out what it really says.

I have found in this forum, you'd better write what you mean or get tortured for it.  I agree with you that some Christians think that it is their duty to save everyone's soul because they consider themselves safe.  I think the world would be a much happier place for us all if people would stop trying to change others and focus on themselves.  God is the only true judge and if people would just let him do his work and stop interfering.  No harm, no foul you are human and obviously someone out there pushed your buttons. There will always be people that offer help/advice when you didn't ask for it.  Learn to ignore them and just walk away.

If it is we are all going to hell.

I totally agree with you,   But keep in mind that when it's all over, there won't be that many people from this earth going to heaven.\n In answer to your question,   Satan has thrown a blindfold over the eyes of the people, that they can't see,  Remember the verse in the Bible  " A child will lead them"?  The reference to the child  is because only a child will not already be defiled by this world..\n Think about your favorite food,  Now wonder to yourself what it would be like if you never tasted your favorite food before,, It would not be your favorite food, would it?   Sex is first tried by teens and even younger children, because it's being taught in our schools. Once they try it they like it, they do it , until it's an obsession.            and the A.C.L.U. is standing back with their boss "satan" laughing . But keep heart, for in Revelation it says, that satan and his followers will be cast into a LAKE OF FIRE...  But it doesn't help our teens now though, except a good dose of AIDS..... That might cure them..  Hopefully some of our teens will stand back and watch before jumping in the sack, or back seat...\nWe had a visiting preacher that said he saw a bumper sticker that said " If it feels good, do it.... So he said he rearended him, later when asked why he did that , he replied It felt good.. The wrong message is being taught in our schools, and in most homes, also, I heard a father say to a boyfriend of his daughter,  If my daughter gets pregnant,  I'll break your neck, But to his buddys, about his son, Ah he's just out sowing his wild oats,   Not CARING that it's someone else's daughter he sowing with..

I would say that people that do not understand God or Jesus, or choose to reject Him, are sinning, and in their egocentric world, hell would be on Earth.  It is arrogance to believe man is the highest form of being and that there is no God.  It is arrogance to believe man can do whatever he wants, as if he were a god.  It is arrogance that sent Satan into Hell, which is not place but a state of being.  It is beyond a 3 dimensional place, it is state of being outside of time and space.  \n\nBut in human linguistics, we are limited to vocabulary and meanings of words we have.  So "hell on earth" is a phrase that may be literal to those who reject God/Jesus.   \n\nI personally believe that suffering in human terms feels like "hell" but the real state of Hell will be worse than any and all suffering we can imagine.  It will be the torment of being separated from God, our Creator.

Nope. he had the concept of damnation all wrong. God never wills for anyone to go to Hell. In fact, it pains him to see so many people go there. He want's everyone to be saved, but it is only by faith.

The only people who will go to hell are those that are not God's children.\n Because God said His children know His voice and will not follow anyone else.\nEveryone else is in unbelief...which is what will send them to hell.\n\nJOHN 3:18\n He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.\n \nIf you want the Truth go here...\nhttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/bibletruths_forbelievers/

People who continually sin, without a conscious..need to check their salvation. If they don't turn there life around they will go to Hell BUT if you ask for forgiveness and mean it, (and turn from your wicked ways)..he will save you..

That is true...Never thought of it like that...If he is supposed to forgive you for all your sins...then why do people threaten us with hell....Probably because it's all a bunch of bull sh!t.

You are being judgemental and harsh about Christains when you say that.  You are judging all Christians because of a few, who you don't even know are real Christians, or who may not fully understand Christianity yet.\n\nNeed a nice Christian answer that's biblical?  Plenty of us can do that without being harsh, but sometimes the truth is harsh.  The Bible says on judement day that all those who are not saved will be cast into a lake of fire along with Satan.
