I've always asked myself though, "What happens to the people in Africa, for example, that don't even know about Christianity? Would they ever make it into heaven?"
If I'm not mistaken most Christ based religions require you to accept Jesus as your savior...failure to do so would mean that you would be cast into hell for your sins.
Yeah, but I always wondered about the uninformed people. I know they can't get to heaven without being baptized, but I was wondering if they have a "pergatory/limbo-type" of place to go? Gotta ask a priest that sometime.
I never heard you HAVE to be baptized. Is that a Catholic thing?
I know that is required for Catholics...I'm not too sure about Protestants and whatnot.
