I went to a place called New Life for a pregnancy test......?

today. Its a christian run place, and they provide free tests. While there the lady asked me if she could share her views with me and I said of course, even though I am an atheist, I welcome other peoples views. At the end of her speel, she said,

"so basically people like me are going to heaven and people like you are going to hell."

I was a little shocked at how she phrased that, even though I understand it is what she believes, I think there was a better, more appropriate way to say it. What is your opinion?

Answers:
Just so you know, she is wrong!!! How dare she! If it were me, I would have slapped her. I am a Christian woman and completely appalled at her behavior. Just because you had sex doesn't mean that your going to hell!! That is not good Christian practice. Those are the kind of people that give Christian's a bad name. For instance, I was engaged in December (years ago) and got pregnant in January. My fiances mother made me stop going to their church until we were married because it was 'wrong' for me to be in the church pregnant and unmarried. That is not what God is about!!! He proud and happy that a person follows his path and works toward being a good person, but I am certain that at that moment he was quite ashamed of that women.
You are not going to hell. Try not to listen to people like that. It takes all kinds.
You mentioned that 'there is a better more appropriated way' to say what she did. NO! She had no right expressing that filth. You are a good person. Remember that. You don't need to be justified by people as shameless as she is.

i agree with you. this isnt the time for that anyay. she needed to be a little more sensitive to your current situation
