This has bugged me for the longest time, maybe someone at OT can answer this.
The Americas along with many other areas went plenty of years without christianity. Some people right now may not have access to it, such as babies that died before being old enough to become religious.
Were those people who never had access to Christianity sent to hell? Isn't that unfair? Does that mean that you really only have a chance to go to heaven if you were lucky enough to be in the time/place where it existed?
What if they were sent to heaven instead. Isn't that unfair to the Christians who have their faith challenged every day to achieve the same result these unreligious people get?
Or does Christianity's god just not care about things such as fairness?

Sounds like you're thinking more of the catholics. The catholics basically said these things so that they could scare their people into going to church. I think, generally speaking, that Christianity is about being a good, moral person, as are all religions to some extent. Because of this, I would think that a true god would be fair and just and all-knowing and all that crap. I don't believe in god though; or organized religion, so my opinion is meaningless.
