Question for religious people II

(1/7) > >>

.:DaYg0sTyLz:.:
Assuming there is a "Heaven" and "Hell" (I use quotations as not every religion will refer to it as Heaven and Hell), and assuming that one of the major motivations of religion is to make people better human beings. Why is it that a mass murderer who later turns their life over to Christ (or whichever God is yours) might be admitted into "Heaven" while a person who spends their entire life helping others, never hurting a fly, would not be admitted without becoming part of "the group".  To me that seems a bit contradictory to the message that many religions try to push.  That idea doesn't urge people to be better people, it teaches them that they can get away with murder...as long as God is in their life.

One more question. If in order to get into "Heaven", you must ask for forgiveness and turn your life over to whichever God it is you worship. What happens to people who are never contacted by the outside world and therefor never introduced to any of these religions? An uncontacted tribe in the middle of a South American jungle would never make it to "Heaven", because they never had the opportunity.

ive got a question. Assuming the bible and all that is true, this means we came from 2 ppl. So this means we are all inbred, so if thats true why is there inbred within separte families. Shouldnt there be none of that if we technically came from 2 ppl?

i cant seem to get the wording write but i hope what u know what im getting at.

My only guess is that when we started becoming more genetically diverse inbreeding became undesirable. Also I don't think the Bible explicitly says we all came from 2 people, simply that we are all descendants of them. That means God could of created more people who had offspring with Adam and Eve's children, grandchildren, etc.
