i do not believe in god or any religion; however, i would consider myself a good person, i have never intentionally harmed anyone and i try my best to treat any race or colour with dignity and respect...
with this in mind, when i die, if i stood at the gates of heaven and god said to you, "you choose whether to let him into heaven or send him to hell?", what would you do?

My theory (which I probably already said somewhere) is that the world needs unbelievers just as much as it needs a plurality of believers.

Originally posted by eatmybishopI would say yes, simply because I wouldn't wish hell upon anyone. but my beliefs here on earth dicates what I think what will happen, and I don't think that question will be asked of me.

Originally posted by eatmybishopIt would certainly be an act of compassion for God to let you into heaven, but if he's going to let you in, he will make you a believer first. So it's still an act of compassion for God to let only believers into heaven.
