But they're decent, line toe-ingly average people, so it's difficult to process that sort of negative expectation. Instead - they just don't process it at all. Leading to a christian who, without malice, and unthinkingly - does really believe that we're going to hell.
This is not an alternative. This is practically the same as what I'm talking about.
And why does it seem like you are misconceiving my post as suggesting malice in Christians?
Yes, I'm discussing the subconscious and questioning whether Christians are truly conscious of whether what they profess is truly what they believe, regarding hell mainly.
I'm not saying this can be operationalised in a scientific manner either.
