10pts for intelligent Christian's answer. Why is Gandhi in Hell?

[JeremyT6426]

He was by all standards a good man, some would argue the best to have ever walked the Earth. Why is he suffering unbearable torture for eternity? Think about eternity for a while.I can see no reason why I deserve eternal torture, let alone Gandhi. Please explain. The rules:-No Bible quotations.-Must be a reasoned answer. This means with reason, not dogma e.g. 'Because he did not accept Jesus' is not an acceptable answer, since it presupposes that accepting Jesus is the only way to avoid hell.Basically answer with ONLY the assumption that God is real and that the prophet Jesus was the Messiah, without referring to what was in the Bible or told to you in Church. The only references to their words are in the Bible so these are included on the 'no' list.I look forward to a logical philosophical/ethical answer. If you have a theological answer without Biblical assumptions those are of welcome too.Christianity claims that to get into heaven you must accept Jesus as your lord and saviour among other things. Gandhi did not do this. There is no purgatory. It is evident that this question troubles you, and your personal preference is not to believe that he went there. Why do you believe this? Isn't this contrary to Christian teaching?I'm not making an argument here, I'm asking a question and appealing to those more wise than me. Insulting me for doing so reflects many things, none of them positive.I'm not making an argument here, I'm asking a question and appealing to those more wise than me. Insulting me for doing so reflects many things, none of them positive.This is not a trick question. The general theme is: other than your faith in the Bible is there any reason that you believe that other belief systems will be punished forever. All I want is a decent answer.I am not saying I know he is in Hell, I am using the assumptions of Christian faith to pose a question, and asking Christians to provide a non-dogmatic justification. Please, intelligent answers only, not the opposite.

Any answer OTHER THAN Scripture is merely one man's opinionJhn 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

[Angel2369]

There is no answer for you because you are rejecting truth. It would be like me asking you what is 2 + 2, then telling you not to give that same old answer of 4.

Not all Christians think he is in hell.

[HTacianas9918]

No one knows whether Gandhi is in hell or not. And anyone who claims to know has placed themself in the position of judgement over another man's soul, and has usurped the authority of God..

He isn't.You didn't even bother to read the Catholic Catechism before you asked this question?

[LucidFreedom-SkyDaddysgirl9482]

So you want us to answer based on being a Christian, but we cannot cite any Christian reasons? Is this a trick question? If you want a philosophical answer why not just ask everyone on the board to give their reason why Ghandi should be in Heaven?

If Gandhi is not welcome in "heaven", I don't want to go there.
