Actually I had a young man I just met tell me that he was afraid that I was going to go to hell because of my rejection of Jesus as my personal lord and savior. I didn't feel insulted or angry by his comments. I felt very sad and I felt pity for this person. I completely understand that these were the things he was taught by those around, I asked him if he has ever made a serious critical look at the tenets of his religion and to no surprise he felt that to do so would be sin. What else should I have felt but pity?
