I was reading something about Susan Atkins, she was one of the followers of Charles Manson.
After murdering Sharon Tate, and her unborn baby, she went to prison for the rest of her life.
While in prison she found God and became a Christian and helped many of the other prisoners.
I'm not sure about Sharon Tate.... Do you think she will go to heaven? And what about the unborn baby....
What about other children who were raped and murdered... How many of the kids end up in hell when their killers get a second chance to find God....
These are extreme examples, but these things do happen. Hitler was evil, but how many of his victims can go to heaven... Their suffering will be increased beyond all imagination and will last forever... This seems very odd to me.
I'm a Buddhist and used to the idea of Karma.... You plant a seed (an intentional act) and it ripens (happiness or suffering)..... mainly through conditioning how you perceive reality.
I find this a real stumbling block in seeing Christianity as reasonable and just. How do you reconcile this with your conscience?
