Is it normal to deny that people you love will go to hell?

It's a coping method.

Your already in hell.

Even though im a Christian noone can really say if heaven or hell actually exsist.

im christian and i have an aunt who i love very much but has done not so good things and i really dont think she will go to hevaen unless she quits doing what shes doing

I'm a Christian and I have also noticed what you are talking about. Everyone wants to think that their family member or friend is in heaven even if they didn't believe in Jesus Christ or led a bad life. The truth is they are most likely in hell. You can't pick the good things you like from Christianity and ignore the bad things. Either you believe everything or don't. Even Jesus said he wished we were either hot or cold, not luke warm. He said the luke warm will be spit out of his mouth.

Yeah, but if the lover is convinced that their love is in hell, then they might do something bad to try to 'join' them. I would hate to think of someone that I love as burning in a pit of flames or whatever. So yes, it is normal.

Your post wasn't typed very well. Most true Christians not the ones who say they are believe in bullshit fairy tales and don't wake up! this is hell already you don't need fire under the floor deep down the earth for it to be hell, and that is a complete myth as there can't be fire deep down the earth, it would just put out with all the wind from different holes in different directions under the ground. Religion is crap, what about just living life freely without having to be in some religion brain washing you with lies without people thinking it's true? too many people that say praying to God or Jesus helps with your problems they are unaware of reality as it's false, what happened to being independent huh? relying on an imaginary man in the sky won't do shit you have to help yourself first.

Interesting. Muslims do seem to be more practical about it. But then they often take their religion more seriously. This isn't mean to inflame Christians, by the way. More an observation that there are varying levels of devotion to Christianity.

I think we all, to some extent, deny that the people we love have problems sometimes, even if we know the truth. Especially after our loved one is dead and we realize that they no longer have the chance to "qualify" so to speak, and that there is nothing more we could do for them. We're reminded that no matter what the pretty songs or poems say, sometimes, there is such thing as too late to act.

In the Mormon religion, people still have the chance to repent in the afterlife. Their heaven isn't as "glamorous" as it is for someone who repented on earth but it is heaven, nonetheless. I think... I hope, that God takes into account a person's deeds, thoughts, and character as well. Punishing a good person because of the church they did or didn't attend sounds too illogical even for the Judeo-Christian version of God.

I have a friend who is a nurse.

People die on her and come back all the time. Sometimes after they're already in a body bag.

I asked her "what do they say when they come back?"

they all say they saw a bright light and a feeling of weightlessness as if they were floating toward it... Make up your own fucking mind.

Believe it, or walk about wondering and fearing the unknown.

Is it normal? Obviously.

People enjoy living in the beautiful lie instead of the harmful truth. I don't think it is just Christians who exhibit the reaction that you mentioned, I think it's everybody.

I'm not christian or anything but I believe the people I love are in heaven because I know I dont have any bad friends. Thier all just good people and good people dont go to hell. I know they'll go to heaven they've done and lived good lives though I alson know there are some people I cant help love that I'm pretty sure will end up in hell. For instance some of my family members are really horrible people with the way they think... they proably end up in hell...
