A Catechumen's Tale: Universalism
"A popular notion among some churches today is that you don't need Christ to enter heaven. Any one - a Jew, Muslim, Hindu, Taoist, any one - can enter heaven so long as they're a "good person". The idea is that only a wicked god would send any one to hell, where there is torture and pain for all eternity. The only people going to hell are those who are truly "bad" - Hitler, Mussolini, Pol Pot, etc.
This is a very pleasant notion, but it's not scriptural, nor has it ever been orthodox doctrine outside of various heresies."
