John Doe in Nicaragua
I've posted my Johe Doe in Nicaragua question in my blog before, though I strangely can't find it in the archives quite some time later. So anyway, I posted the similar question again in Yahoo Answer, and I wonder what kinda answers i'll get.
You tell me..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Christians told me, you either go to heaven or to hell. They also say, if you don't believe in god, you dun go to heaven, even if u do a u-turn at pearly gates.
consider this scenario:
"John Doe is borned in Nicaragua. He lived and died there and all his life he led a simple farmer life and didn't commit much sins. He is a good man without religious beliefs. There are no religion in Nicaragua. No christians have ever been there, hence there's no way that he can believe in something or someone that he never ever know exist.
He died and this st peters at pearly gates said John Doe didn't believe in this god who owned heaven. Hence John Doe didn't go to heaven, so he prolly went to hell.
There are 5 million John Does in Nicaragua. All went to hell thereafter."
is that right?

No doubt.
(but we're still debating this issue in church)
i dont believe it's so simple. believers -->heaven, non-believers-->hell.
christians can go to hell (cos they are so many fake christians around), non christians can go to heaven (i can't say they are sinless but i am very sure it is not up to ANY OF US (including the church!) to decide whether they go to heaven or hell... it's up to Him, who judges when the Day comes.

it's just one of the christian thing that bothers me whenever i hear of such defining arguments.
i just try to live as moral a life as i can. but oh, nvm that.
