And more worryingly, with the Christians I have spoken to, those who are more consistent in their beliefs and actually update the rest of their beliefs on them (and don’t just have “Christianity” as a little disconnected bubble in their beliefs) are overwhelmingly in this category, and those who believe that most Christians will go to heaven usually haven’t thought very hard about the issue.
C.S. Lewis thought most everyone was going to Heaven and thought very hard about the issue. (The Great Divorce is brief, engagingly written, an allegory of nearlyuniversalism, and a nice typology of some sins).
I would also add that there are Christian’s who beleive that everyone goes to heaven, even atheists.
I spoke with a protestant theology student in Berlin who assured me that the belief is quite popular among his fellow students.
He also had no spirtiual experiences whatsoever ;)
There are also various Christian’s who believe that other Christian’s who follow Christianity the wrong way will go to hell.
I can’t upvote this point enough.
