badstarDo not answer this question: If someone has never heard of Jesus, God, Chrisitanity, The Bible, etc....do they still go to hell for not being saved?
Okay...I'm not looking for an answer to this question.
Answer this question: Is this a valid question? If no, why not?
Just curious. Question prompted by a discussion had with someone in another community. I know that just about everyone I've talked to in the past thinks that it's a valid question to ask, no matter what they may believe the answer is. This would be the first person that I've ever talked to who's pretty much said "that isn't a valid question."
(ok, if you really want you can tell me what your thoughts on the first question are but what I'm really looking for is a yes or no to "is this a valid question?", and if you say no, then why you say so.

Date: 2006-04-28 04:38 am (UTC)there's nothing really, i've ever heard in christian teachings that addresses this. if an adult isn't saved, to them, he's going to hell. now for a child under the age of accountability were in this situation, then they would not go to hell. although catholics baptize their babies right away, anyway, to keep this from happening.
that's the other thing, some denominations believe that you have to ask jesus into your heart to be "saved" and others think that you are saved by how you live your life and by how much penance you do for your sins.
anyway... oh wait! it's not a valid question, because ALL christians should be out there spreading the good news. so there shouldn't be anyone that hasn't heard of christ!
