Okay, here's a question I have about Christianity: If God stands for all things good, and Jesus died for all our sins, why does he send people to hell?

It's also an error that the old testament doesn't have a "hell" while the new testament does.

Pastafarianist, because i believe we have all been touched by his noodly appendage

I probally am, I was just saying IF he wasn't. I'm not saying he isn't.

The torah doesn't have a hell either. The jews believe you go to a place where "your soul is cleansed" for one year and after that you are sent to heaven.

Jesus died for all our sins

Exactly. Why do the Christians get sent to hell for eternal ****ation while the Jews get off scot-free if they're worshipping the same god?

That not entirely true. He did die for sins but only those who believed in him. That is why.

Great. This is turning into the WEPR's mood. Oh, goody.

It's difficult to argue with people that have such a different viewpoint as I do...improving debating skills FTW.

@Bobomonkey
How do you know for sure that all of this happened? That Jesus' death cleansed all of your sins? How can you tell if it worked? :/

So if that's true, then Christians don't have to worry about going to hell at all. They can pretty much do whatever the "hell" they want.

Well only one of them is right

It's only when Jesus comes into the picture that the concept of hell seems to come into play.

Really it's just a belief i don't think there's really a way to tell if it worked or not.
