Contradiction of greatest

RE: Contradiction of greatest
(October 2, 2009 at 2:58 am)Arcanus Wrote: A relatively good person? By what moral criteria? That was a card shrewdly dealt from the bottom of the deck. Hopefully your fingers merely slipped and that wasn't on purpose. As for my response to the question: Every single relatively good person goes to heaven, but that's because "relatively good" is relative to a right relationship with God through Christ Jesus, apart from whom there is no good. The sinfulness of man, as Malcolm Muggeridge pointed out, "is at once the most empirically verifiable reality but at the same time the most intellectually resisted fact." You disagree, of course, because you opt for a vastly different moral theory. However, you were not asking me about your views.

By the moral criteria you assert with the exception of belief. (I.E. They do not steal, rape, murder, get married, have children, live a good life, give to charity, etc... but don't believe in God) However, it seems clear you don't think someone can be moral by "Christian standards" without belief. So that brings me to my next question, do these "wicked" people go to hell and what is hell from your Christian perspective?
