Do you believe that all non-believers will go to hell?

I have to doubt the intelligence of someone who would ask this question. There is no agnostic. If you accept the possibility. Then you accept God because it is nothing but possibility. You might as well ask what happens to people who don't believe in the Easter Bunny. But no amount of logic will convince you otherwise which goes further to prove my point that you are in fact a believer. Because only a Believer will not consider the f a c t that there is no God.

If you want to have questions that is your business and your own private hell but do not insult our intelligence with your unexplainable lack of intelligence concerning this issue when by all appearances you seem otherwise normal.

And that is the terminology which we will be using in the near future. Those who accept there is no God are in fact normal because there is no God. They made up the word atheist which is a misnomer in itself because atheist probably wish for there to be a God more than anyone. I mean hell would be nice to have especially with this Administration LOL

I of course wish you the best and hope you find the answers you need to reach a fairly obvious fact

You have absolutely no idea what your talking about.

I mean no disrespect, but your posit doesn't make sense. If you are non-beleiver, than by definition there is no heaven or hell. This concept only exists if you buy into a paradigm that holds this as one of its tenets. Therefore, you cannot go to someplace that does not exist in your belief system.

A none believer yes.but can I prove that hell does not exist, no. My question was hypothetical any way

@River-david Your augment reminds me of a populAR chemistry joke about a test question that queries whether he is exothermic or endothermic? The student goes through an elaborate explanation but ends it by stating that hell must be exothermic. He posited that his girl friend explained to him that he would have a snow balls chance in he'll of getting lucky last night. Lol

Yes,but he loves you .

Love George Carlin, hits the nail right on the head

Carlin was alright.

Hopefully not all, some of them are as boring as believers, they would ruin all the fun.

LOL. One of the strangest concepts to come out of the ancient middle east philosophies. Simply stated: a way to scare children and simple mind adults into conforming in whatever philosophy whomever is pushing. Still used today. Fear is the strongest motivator. Our society is full of it.

Well, first I'd have to believe in hell which is pretty silly to begin with.

The Jewish tribes were originally polytheists. That is why the old testament has two different names for god. There was disagreement on which god to worship when they wanted to worship just one. In the end they ended up choosing Yahweh, who was originally a god of war (and not defensive war, but aggressive war). Then they were defeated by the Zoriastrians, and were introduced to the concept of hell from them, which they adopted in order to scare themselves into stronger belief and devotion to their now one god.

So, anyway, their formerly being polytheist, is why th first commandment is to put no other gods before Yahweh. BEcause they used to worship more than just one god.

It is all just made up, edited and reedited over and over, trying to gain the favor of imaginary god(s).

We have been told by the faithful that hell is no fun.

I think they are lying.

I don’t believe in hell.

If I were on the curriculum committee, I would ask, "Non-belief in what, exactly?" Then I'd want a clear definition of hell, followed by a pink slip to hand to the teacher giving out test questions like this. 😛

It was a hypothetical question. What if Jefferson had not made the Louisiana purchase for example.
The pope recently said atheists can go to heaven (I don't believe in that either) but this is a place to ask questions. Sorry if you didn't appreciate it.

@River-david That's odd . . . I thought my tongue was firmly planted in cheek. 😛

I believe that a lot of Christians know this is doctrinal but try not to think about it. Christians know that saying they do think so, means they are the sort of bastard who thinks people deserve to be punished in agony for all eternity. Just for disrespecting their monstrous god.

The two standard Christoholic arguments against this are:-

God sends no one to Hell you send yourself
and the equally
It is not up to me to judge, it is god's will and judgement

the fact that these two arguments contradict one another does not seem to bother them in the least

No, As a non-believer, I don't believe in heaven or hell, God or Satan.

You do realize the site you are on, don’t you?

Yes I most certainly do.its a place to discuss isn't it. Wow so much flak for asking this question. You know agnostic means one does not claim that there can't be a god.

I do not believe in hell so the question is moot.

Modern fundagelical concepts of eternal perdition owe more to Dante than to the Bible anyway.

What he said..

Hell No.

I don't believe in Hell. Unless you're talking about Hell, Michigan or Hell, California. But still, no. Those places would be pretty overcrowded if we all went there.

It would be overcrowded, but imagine the music and food.

@RobLawrence Now that would be a Burning Man festival!
