Quote:Well, first, I don't believe in lumping everything into two categories. Good and evil? Surely there are lines in between. And what's stopping evil people from accepting God's forgiveness and getting into heaven? Why would God accept someone like Hitler into heaven, if he were to turn around and accept God's forgiveness, while a "relatively more innocent person" (I know no one's supposed to be guilt-free, but you get the idea) suffers for having REASONABLE doubt to this obscure god?
Hitler COULD have gone to heaven, but first he would have had to have been truely sorry for all the evil he did. You can't just say I accept God's forgiveness, you have to be truely sorry for the sins you comitted.
Sometimes you get the scorpion.
