    Question: would Jesus let Mohammad, Moses, and Buddha into “heaven”?

    Me, according to his alleged statement in John 14:6, saying that people had to basically be followers of his to get to heaven, I think he wants them to not get into heaven, so he seems quite bigoted. Personally, I'd look at someone's ethics and good works, not which invisible friend they believed in, as my criteria to get into heaven (if any.) Seems less bigoted.

    But what do you think?

    Buddha and Moses were probably already there when Jesus arrived. Muhammed got tricked into going to Hell by telling him that 73 virgins were waiting for him there.

    Granny says, "Dat ain't his job...

    ... St. Peter is the one who guards the entrance into the Gates of Heaven...

    ... an' he's the one responsible for inspectin' the fence that seperates Heaven an' Hell...

    ... an' makin' sure Satan, who's job it is to keep it in good order so's the riff-raf don't cross over.

    One day St. Peter noticed Satan was lettin' the fence sag in the lower north forty...

    ... so he called Satan over an' told him to fix it.

    Well, Satan starts gettin' this attitude an' said, "And what if I don't?"

    So St. Pete said if he didn't fix it...

    ... he'd get a lawyer an' sue him an' make him fix it.

    Whereupon Satan said...

    ... "And just where you gonna get a lawyer?"

    So Jesus is NOT all-powerful like the Bible states, then, correct? Jesus is not powerful enough to change the barbaric rules of entrance, then, correct? If he's not that powerful, then the Bible is a lie when it says he magically answers your prayers even after being dead for 2000 years.

    So because they didn't worship Jesus, the mad man from Nazareth probably had them kicked out (per John 14:6.) Like a Nazi, Jesus appeared to want "heaven" to be pure, with no non-Christian riff-raff. Heck, he'd even keep Einstein out of the place! When you look up "bigot" in the dictionary it might show a picture of Jesus.

    "Heaven" is the ultimate red-lined district.....no "undesirables"....no Hindus....no Buddhists.....No Muslims...no Jains, etc. Christianity/Jesus are worse than racism is, arguably.

    Moses had 3000 people killed in one day alone, so technically he's worse than the person in your avatar who is shaking Hillary's hand. So why the heck would Moses be rewarded in "heaven"!? :)

    It would be more moral to let Gandhi in, and NOT Moses.

    No one was in heaven until Jesus was crucified, as per the biblical myth.

    Actually, Buddha and Jesus were roommates in college. Mohammed lived down the hall and was always studying. Nobody ever saw his face but he would scream and bang on the wall every time anyone's music got too loud. Mosses was the Dorm Monitor, but Jesus and Buddha thought he was too strict and used to totally prank him.

    Well let's take a look at the verse "“I am the way and the truth and the life."

    If you are against life and truth,you fail by that alone ... That's why Jesus was the way, he knew these things that you seem not too .... Ahahaha !!!!

    Since truth is subjective, then anyone who has truth according to them is in? Or what is the 'truth' spoken of?
    Most all are for life. So that is a gimme.

    According to the myth, no one is in heaven or whatever the kingdom is until judgement day.

    - Work out your own salvation. Do not depend on others.

    -Buddha (400 years before Christ).


    - No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.

    You can say anything is "subjective" if it isn't obvious to you.

    You say "most are for life so that is a gimmi" - but that isn't true, that would actually be subjective to many but Most are actually for death and NOT for life,please spare me, this world and almost all that live in it are for death.

    Case and point - look at the world.

    Ah yes, yet another discussion of the validity of religious dogma, requiring the judgment of men to interpret hypothetical situations and actions of the hypothetical utterly inhuman supernatural entity supposedly ruling over everything.

    to me its merely another indication of the fact that all religious dogma is derived from men's imaginations.

    Disrespecting Buddha is no different than disrespecting Jesus. Any real Christian knows that.

    I am truly sorry. I guess you have proven some are not for living this life and hate it. But that is a small minority.
    But it is not most, so, spare yourself.
    Most people like and enjoy life.

    Science speaks more truth than a magical dead guy who was so immoral that he never condemned slavery or the killing of gays (which both still exist in the book about him). I guess he didn't understand right from wrong, or at least he's not real today (or he'd have, in 2000 years, told us that those two concepts are dead wrong.)
    How about "MORALITY is the way and the truth and the life", instead of making everything about HIM....seems like a bloated ego at work.

    "I am the way, the truth and life, no one goes to father but except through me"


    That's what Jesus said and that is the bottom line.


    Now considering that ALL of them didn't believe Jesus to be God, they are all in Hell.


    Or so Christianity claims

    The contradiction took on more power when Daniel Light used Buddha as a weapon.

    Just goes to show how much you know about Christianity. I've yet to see any Christian claim Moses is in hell. And, no educated Christian can claim Budda is in hell. There is a difference between pre-Jesus and post-Jesus.

    Additionally, no one is in hell and no one goes to hell. Judgement is for the unsaved and they are destroyed in the lake of fire.

    The word hell is used to represent places that are not of modern false doctrine teachings. OT, it is the realm of the dead( a place of sleep waiting resurrection)

    NT, it is Gehenna, a burning dump outside Jerusalem, which does not exist today.

    Occording to jesus, you will be saved if you believe in him and be forgiven of all of your sins if you ask for forgiveness.

    To believe Jesus is who he says he is is a must to go to heaven. Everyone else goes to hell. Jesus himself said these things.


    And I misspoke. Everyone but Moses is in hell.

    Mother Teresa who denounced god before her death surly is.


    And that OK with Christians
