Coud you really 'respect' that? And if I genuinely beleived in that, could I be expected to 'respect' your ridiculous beleifs in science, YHWH, Ganesh, or The Force?

its more or less about respecting the rights of people to believe what they believe. People have to decide for themselves which, if any religion to follow. I'm not going to play God and tell which to go to.

As for the belief that all those that don't worship Christ will go to hell, I admit I do have a problem it that I've never been able to resolve. What about all the people whom had no chance to hear the word? what about children that die before they even have a chance to understand? Are they all in hell? Hitler was a Christian, a catholic I think(although obviously not a good one), Gandhi was not a Christian. Is Hitler in heaven and Gandhi in hell? What about all the people who lived and died before Christ was even born? Are they in hell? Are the 6 Million Jewish people who died in the Holocaust in hell? All the aborted babies whom are supposedly full fledged humans with souls, are they hell? These are the things I can't accept. It has caused a sort of schism between myself and my religion and my church. I don't know what else to say.
