Situation 1
We are born in a criminal family, raised by serial killers. All our life, since 1 year old, we are taught that we have to steal and kill people to make money and to live, and thats the way it should be, and thats the good thing. From 3-12 year old, all we watch is people killing people, and we are taught doing it. Later we practice it and actually kill some people, till we become adults. After that, we are forged and kill for a living. We are evil killing machines.

Situation 2
We are born in a wealthy family. We are taught the good manners. To treat people good, to be honest, to never steal, and to work hard to get what we want. Blah blah blah, we grow as adults and become good and honest citizens and live till we die doing only good stuff.


Now the question. If paradise and hell exits, obviously, we think that the kid in Situation 1 goes to hell for killing people, and viceversa for Situation 2. But if we think about it. If the SAME kid in situation 1 grew in Situation 2, there is no doubt he would be a good kid. So why should he go to hell? He was just UNLUCKY to be born in a fucked family. Should he go to hell because he was just unlucky? I mean, all the killers in the world were born in some fucked environments, its not really their faults.

Ok, now if you think when we are BORN evil/good and its in our genes. Even then, if we are born evil and become killers, its not our fault, we have been just unlucky to be born that way. Why should we go for ETERNITY in hell for something we are just not responsible of?????
So do you think, according to the reasonning above(which in my opinion reflects reality), that the killer in Situation 1, that was raised by criminals, should go to Hell for ETERNITY??
