I’ve been thinking about something. Everyone has heard the usual Heaven/Hell setup: you live, you die, you get judged, and then it’s eternal paradise or eternal torment. Simple. Clean. Terrifying.

But here’s the thing—what if that picture is wrong? What if it was never about God running a cosmic prison system? What if it’s about restoration?

Christian universalism says something wild: that all souls, no matter how broken or lost, will ultimately be reconciled to God. Not instantly, not painlessly—justice still matters—but in the end, there’s no eternal cut-off. No infinite torture. Just a love that doesn’t quit.

Imagine if that’s true. Imagine if the worst human being you can think of still has a path back to wholeness. Imagine if every single soul, every single one of us, is destined for redemption—because God refuses to let go.

I know some of you hate religion. Some of you probably think this is cope, or wishful thinking. Fair enough. But ask yourself: which vision of reality feels more like truth? A God who creates billions of souls just to watch most of them burn forever… or a God who heals everything, no matter how long it takes?

I’m not saying “believe in Jesus or else.” I’m saying: what if the universe itself is rigged for mercy? What if love is the last word?

Would you live differently if you believed nobody was ever truly lost?

I think my grandfather and grandmother might believe something similar. When I reflected on it and read the Bible I kinda had the thought that it seemed like someone burned forever or received whenever punishment they would bestow upon another person. That we are more responsible than we think we are for the things we do to other people and the judgements we pass on them. I mean universalism does sound really believable to me, people can change. But what do you do with a person who in many different circumstances acts out the desire to have power over others? Think about the extent to which you extend mercy and empathy to others. But ultimately, we should ask him what's important to him, reflect on his love. And we need to remember that we don't know how things work, we humans don't know everything. We can still trust God even if we don't know how everything works.

what if openly supporting or covering pedophiles is bringing you straight to hell with no exceptions?
just saying, the implications are up to you.

If you think about it, then the problem with the Heaven/Hell model is that the people who go through it will still have to live out their lives, so they can't actually be in Heaven/Hell until they're dead.

A lot of it depends on karma in that world, too
