Christian THINK: What About Your Friends and Family Who Will Be In Hell?

On Facebook I became a fan of the group "I may be going to hell but at least all my friends will be there." It's just a fun group and I can do fun. But then a Christian friend of mine and I got into a brief conversation about it:

M said: I won't be.

John: Hi M. It's a joke, okay? There's no hell.

M: Funny ... just wanted you to know that some of your friends won't be there.

John: Well, if I'm correct that we won't wake up after we die then you will never know I was right. Come on now, would you really want me to be in hell? Am I that bad of a person? Rather than regurgitate the standard Chick Tract answers to me, which I once believed, wouldn't you think a God who would do that when I cannot believe differently is barbaric? You see, I can't believe differently. For me to do so would be a massive sacrifice of intellect. No, I do not reject God because I want to live a sinful lifestyle. I'm the same person I've always been except that I no longer go to church or pray or tithe or evangelize. What merit do these things have when compared to being a good person?

Think, don't defend. If you get into defensive mode you end up doing nothing but regurgitating Chick Tract theology to me. Come on now. You cannot bring yourself to think of me in hell. And if I was there along with some of your other friends and family members, wouldn't you be unhappy in heaven because of this? Can you really be happy in heaven when you think to yourself they are suffering in hell?

M: [Silence]
