I was watching this thing on the History channel about the history of Hell and Satan, and it is pretty intresting for the most part, but there was this one guy that said. "For those that say they do not beleive in hell, is saying that Hittler deserves and well have the same fate as the kindist and most gentle person"
Which for one is not true, karma and reincarnation work without hell and usually in an altenrtive to hell, and yet in the karmic and reincarnation system the actions of ones life can count against you or for you and have sway over your fate without there being the exsisitince of an acutal hell.
In Hinduism for example there is no true concept of heaven and hell, not as an acutaly place a person goes, or a residence of the soul, in Hindusism the concept of hell is more of a mental state, heaven one of pleasure and hell one of pain, so it is a place any person at any time can visit and come back from and it is something everyone has experiened, but there still doest exisit in Hindusim a concept of reward and retribution even if it is different from the westernized concept of these things. It still exisits.
The other thing that really annoys me is that more like then not, the person whom made that statement and others who are of like beleif also beleive that the most saintly, gentle natured, kind hearted and compassionate Buddists will also share the same fate as Hittler and deserves to do so.
And how can that be ok or make sense?
