You are applying logic to myth. It doesn't work.

will sinners and rejectors of 'divine' Jesus pbuh just die or go to hell?
If hell then wouldnt the saviour also had to take the same punishment to take on the sins of all as just death wouldnt be enough and neither would it be doing justice. he cant die for 3 days and then go to heaven!!
Thoughts?

The flesh is made to sin. Look at lions with their pride of multiple females is that not lust? Although we can look at it as he's trying to insure the survival of his bloodline.
Look at the same lions do they not fight over territory is that not greed?
Look at monekys tearing eachother apart is that not like hatred between warring tribes.
Fact is the flesh sins. It's the soul that's divine. And creatures of intelligence is supposed to find a balance in both.
If you were born to sin then your flesh is full of it. It's your responsibility to control it so that it's balanced and does not impede on others experiencing their life.

A loving Father would never condem his children...
The people you speak of will be reborn... Into the body and situation they deserve...
edit on 14-11-2012 by Akragon because: (no reason given)
what you say may or may not be true, The Loving Father is not just Loving, He will also do Justice, even Justice to Himself, ya he is Forgiving and Merciful but then the one who wants that should come to him humbly and ask. And what greater injustice than to worship anything else other than the true Creator or associate with Him the deities that did nothing.
Its like you save my life once and i am flowing with thanks to your neigbour, thanking him, giving him gifts, praising him. If i knowingly do it. Wouldnt i be very unjust.
And not to mention the injustice the good children of God would feel when they see nobody being punished?
Did they do good and suffered in vain all their life?
Ya i know that they enjoyed the peace and satisfaction that comes with being close to God.
But is good and evil equal? No.
Then there should be difference in the consequence too.
Do you meant people who dont believe Jesus pbuh as divine and atheist etc would be reborn? Till they believe?
And about a person who never knew about Jesus pbuh or Muhammad pbuh, he wouldnt end up in hell for that. Every baby is born with the true belief and the right tendancy, its called "fitrah" in arabic, only later the baby may drift away by influence of surrounding.
you took my example in a way that i dint mean, i would save a person or do any good just for the sake of God not for praise.
I wanted to you to just look at that example objectively for justice and compare the analogy with God giving us this life, giving everything we have and then i go and worship a stone, a man etc that can do nothing, isnt that injustice to the Creator?
And when you say that people who dint believe in God would not be happy in the afterlife, i agree with you.
When everyone would be given their account and they would see their actions in this life, either they would be happy or filled with regret and suffer.
And about a person who never knew about Jesus pbuh or Muhammad pbuh, he wouldnt end up in hell for that. Every baby is born with the true belief and the right tendancy, its called "fitrah" in arabic, only later the baby may drift away by influence of surrounding.and so its said that every baby is born muslim(adverb-surrendered to God not the religious group/label) and so when someone accepts islam he/she is called reverted rather than converted.
But ya, knowing about the prophets and rejecting them is not the same. Bible and Quran give a good idea about people who rejected a prophet.
