Or do they need to be converted to be converted?

  So which gate does Peter stand at, or does he have a twin?

Ha ha. Some, perhaps, certainly not all. Some go to church thinking this gives them the ticket to the Kingdom, not seeing that it is only by faith that we enter into the Kingdom. Some who are first will be last and some who are last will be first.

  Ah, it all depends on faith and free will, Tony. Either faith is activated or it is not. We may not know the heart of another, but by their fruits (actions), much is revealed.
  
  BTW, welcome back.

[no offense intended towards anyone]
Unity in the Body of Christ? How optimistic. A global warming of sorts, eh?
Are you trying to provoke a second coming and/or an angel invasion or what? lol ...

I'm fascinated that people have difficulty embracing all Faiths

not much action going on,

I think I understand what you're asking acoustic but how about defining it a wee bit better like,

Can a Catholic who remains faithful to the teaching of Catholic Christianity and doesn't leave the Catholic communion enter into (non-Catholic)heaven?

kevinatserieatalk

come on, where are all those persons less than 24hours ago attempting to turn up the heat on Catholics?

scheduledoctor? The BigRuski? globalgirl?, calling all non-Catholic Christians.... calling all non-Christian religious

and lisamcglaun makes a huge point

For a proposed solution to the problem, please check out my story about a modernized heaven with gun-slinging Peter where all faiths live together in harmony (but don't know about the others)!

Why do we not all try to embrace one another and forget about our differences? We'll all find out ... in the end. Let's love one another and enjoy life. Let's help those around us and without a doubt the world will be a better place. Who's on board? Ride that love train!

If we get to heaven, can we check out the other ones to see which is best and change? Just in case we rooted for the wrong team

it's easier for catholics cos there's only one heaven and Simon Peter will give u a hi-five at the gate...

as for protestant? it depends on your denomination and who broke off and started the denomination... could be Martin, James, etc....and if it's a new denomination i am afraid the heaven might still be under construction LOL

Only one "heaven" but who are we to say who is in or out. That is God's work.
