But....but it's a study it's science you has to believe it!
Not so sure this is ridiculous, as the Catholics for one can go to confession on Friday night be absolved of their sins and head out Saturday night to repeat them-------Then back to Church to confess again and say a few Hail Marys and be free of sin for another week.
Christians believe that if a person repents their sins then they will forgiven. So who at the imminent time of death does not regret their sins, does not have great fear of what is to come due to their former actions ???
Interesting concept, go to heaven and find the worlds worse monster there because they repented in fear before the died.
Those that commit crimes have a one way ticket to heaven as long as they believe in Jesus at any time.
Muslims go straight to heaven if they are male and have 120 virgins waiting, The Muslim woman just die and go nowhere.
Christianity is the only faith that takes females into heaven, not as sex slaves but as equal to the men. as far as we know.
