Does that mean a person has to be literate to understand religion? I have been to a few different church services and most do not focus on going to Hell. Most focus on doing better for mankind's sake. What is the difference in attitudes? Does a child automatically go to Hell for stuff they do, because they don't understand religious significance? Does an elderly person who has dementia and has hallucinatory experiences fall into the same category? What about the mentally retarded who function on a different plain than we do?
