Is God bias? He seems to want the "good" people to enter Heaven, and the "bad" people to go to Hell for eternity. So is this God bias? What if the person never heard of Christianity, or Judaism, or Islam? What if they were born in a jungle and lived there all their lives. Is God going to let someone ignorant of His existence go to Hell, when it was never their fault?

This is coming from an Islamic perspective.

God would love it if every person made it into heaven without having any go to hell. But it's our choices that will determine our own fight in this regard. If a good person becomes evil, he will go to hell, if an evil person becomes good, he will go to heaven. It's not over until it's truly over (namely, dying).

And by the way, Hell is not considered to be an eternal punishment in Islam.

A person who has never heard of Islam or the Prophet Muhammad PBUH, and who has never heard the message in its correct and true form, will not be punished by God if he dies in a state of disbelief. If it were asked what his fate will be, the answer will be that Allah will test him on the Day of Resurrection: if he obeys, he will enter Paradise and if he disobeys he will enter Hell.

Why did God need to create Hell?

Your questions actually force people to either deeply consider what God really is, or just pretend they fully know. So, let's be fair. We have ZERO confirmation that the Bible is truly the word of "God". So to assume anything about God is to accuse and bear obscure testimony. Wouldn't it suck if judgement day really is a day in court, and God asks you why you put all these words in God's mouth, and you have no legitimate answer? Everything is made of God, even hell. Proof? There was nothing before God, right? What did God have on hand to make anything out of? Just sayin'.

In the Qur'an Hell is the ground. "The fire whose fuel is men and stones" -Al Bacara. No matter what you call it, God, Allah, Yahweh, Jehova, the fact remains we cannot speak on its behalf based on texts that were written, by men, long before you were even born. It may seem like I don't have faith, but I do. Just not in man. Just sayin'.

"God doesn’t expect people to respond to something they’ve never heard. But He does hold us accountable for what we HAVE heard. This idea is expressed by the following passage: “sin is not taken into account when there is no law” (Romans 5:13). If a person cannot respond to the good news of Jesus dying on their behalf (because they haven’t heard that good news), what are they accountable to respond to?"

Even though the bible is clear on most of this, people often fail to emphasis that every soul is judged on a case by case basis. We can speculate that God would own up to his word that those that do not walk with christ shall be damned but we also hold up the belief that God is ultimately "tough but fair." Accepting the merit of the ignorant and not condemning the ignorance itself.

Well God is like justice he focuses on each human and i think bad People go to hell but it depends on how if they kill or are unfair or did many sins ist possible and i think Paradies is also for atheists as long as they let other People believe in God and they live without hurting others it is ok

But to be honest no one knows god and how he judges and what he describes as agood human

Since mortals dont know answers i think this thread is not neccesary

Actually People should never question God what you do
But well

Well how does that account to being bias?
It's just how it should be. If you do good deeds ,your ultimate destination should be a good place as a reward for your efforts that is heaven.
Similarly if you've spent your life practicing ill behavior ,then you should be accountable for it. A vast majority of the bad guys don't get what they deserve whilst alive. Henceforth their ultimate accountability is done in the life hereafter.

As for the ignorant ,then God has given us brains and the ability to understand things and question ourselves for a reason. And if a person has no access to any such knowledge ,then they're obv innocent and hence deserve a place in heaven.
