What always gets me about these near death stories is you never hear about people going to hell. It’s always “Oh there is a tunnel of light and all this love” Well what about extremely evil people like Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Hamas, Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, are they going through this tunnel of light of love as well? I don’t want to go to a place where I’m breaking bread with Hitler, Hillary where all is forgiven, these demons are beyond forgiveness.

Sounds like an interesting movie. When I was near death (sepsis, in a coma on a ventilator with my heart stopped beating several times and the doctors wanting to pull the plug saying I would be a vegetable because of lack of oxygen to my brain) I remembered nothing of the experience. So count me skeptical but would love for these experiences to be true.
Scripture tells us what we need to know about the hereafter.

I’m ready. Jesus is my Lord and Savior, that’s all I need.
I try.
I fail miserably as regards the corrupt, the tyrannical, the pedophiles.....
.... but the rest, even those on the left, I try to love. One fellow in particular is Socialist to the point of Communist, but he is a wonderful person otherwise and I love the man.
“As Khmer Rouge guerrillas they took part in genocide. Now, as Christians, they ask for forgiveness”

So the Khmer butchers get to go to Heaven but their Buddhist victims must burn forever?

I think I’ve said before that I believe I’m forgiven as I believe in my Lord & Saviour Jesus who sacrificed and bled for me and all of mankind that we might be saved.
Yet I’m often wracked with guilt that I can’t be less of a sinner and I basically helped cause him into that measure to save his creation from itself.
Various religions, including some Christian thinkers, consider hell not everlasting, but more like a penitentiary, to be punished, and learn.
