I'm a convert of Quora.com a community that welcomes questions from anyone over the age of 13, and whose members attempt to answer those questions.

An intriguing question I attempted to answer today was about what things lead a person to going to hell.... and some people made some amazing answers. Here's my list, composed while travelling in a winter rain storm.
- Raping, killing, maiming, neglecting children.
- Abducting/using children for sexual pleasure. (Family members are often guilty of this, it's not always strangers)
- Abusing animals.
- Discharging toxic waste anywhere. (PCBs are now found in tiny creatures living in the deepest depths of the ocean) the GE designers and builders of Fukashima power plant are on this list: you know who you are.
- Operating drones in order to kill people.
- Acting as if your actions have no effect on others or the welfare of the planet.
- Sitting back and not acting to prevent harm when you see it happening in front of you. Corporate employees are deeply guilty of this.
- Allowing injustice to go unchallenged.
- Failing to assist those in need.
- Manufacturing, supplying and using firearms and other weapons designed only to slaughter other human beings.
- Following mindless prejudices just because that's what your parents believed.

What kinds of things do you think would lead a person to eternal damnation in hell, in modern times?
Certainly the list of things that seem like they may cause people to go to hell has expanded over the simple old sins by quite a lot.
