If there is one God and one religion, what happens to the rest of the people who do not belong to that religion? Do they go to hell? [Spirituality & Religion]

There is a difference between God and Religion. No worries I been to that same route years ago.

It has never been proven that there is a creator or not. There are many theories, books, and authors, choose whatever makes you feel comfortable with how you live your life.

There is likely something higher than us, I doubt anyone has pinpointed what it is exactly. So, the only honest answer I can give is, I don’t know.

There are many paths up the same mountain.

I was taught something by my grandmother. She said God will take everything into consideration and judge a man's heart. So if they never knew God it's not their fault you know? It's only when you learn about God and reject him over and over. He gives a person every chance though. He's fair.

They go to Mormon heaven

Gee, you don't ask any easy questions do you?

In Purgatory, there is a nice part of it designated for Virtuous Pagans, i.e., good people born before Christ or who were never exposed to Christianity.

And these types of questions are why religion is slowly fading from the human psyche. Maybe we are outgrowing the need for religion in some small way. I hope so anyway.

Humans of one sort or another have been around for a million years. Even the neanderthals buried their dead with flowers. What's to say that theirs was not the true religion. Perhaps dolphins have the true religion! They've been around much longer than us and they speak to each other. Our holy books, Creed's, songs, and prayers are translations of older things with redactions, additions, subtractions, and outright fiction. So what do we know? We are just condensed energy in an infinite void. So what's to say we are not just God's dream.

These types of questions are part of why I don't believe in a god anymore.

They go to North Korea, where they must praise Dear Leader.

I'd suggest it's one God and many denominations, and this is accepted by most churches. Since you chose catholicism - i'm not a catholic but I know what they believe on this - catholic teaching does recognise that people prior to catholicism and outside catholicism may find God. Most other christian denominations teach the same.

So... there's your answer.

It’s such a controversial subject. I asked the same question once and the conclusion was that most people simply don’t recognize their religion as a religion. “Everyone who accepts Jesus will be fine” was the most popular answer

The Bible starts in Genesis with Adam and Eve. The Catholics started with Peter but there are other denominations that believe in a living Messiah.

I imagine God has contingencies in place for such eventualities

I like your thinking!

You know the answer to this my sweet. I know you do :)

Nothing. The same as the people who believe in one god/religion.

there is only one god, people have different names

No heaven or hell..

They all burn in Hell for eternity

*overthinks and worries

Nothing happens
...the end
