However I don't think that he accepted Christ as his lord and saviour or the Qur'an as the word of Allah.
So a question to theists is: Is he in or going to Hell or eternal death since he for instance new about Christ but rejected him.
Ghandi as far as I know stuck to his own religion. Just goes to show how strong influence is what your parents are.
Aknowledging that you are a Christian or muslim, jew, hindu, etc of some sort because of your parents or society is a great way break free from tradition and start not engeniering but uncovering God thats if you still reamain thinking there is one.
Thanks
Ervin, Jesus said that only through Him can one come to the Father and enter paradise. So with Ghandi rejecting Christ he will spend eternity seperated from God in a place called hell. Now the two who answered before me gave you answers about what happened to his body and they are correct, they however do not believe in God (which is an act of freewill) so they can not speak on the soul as chiristians can and that's why I filled in the rest of the story.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
