Deserve? to what purpose? If you could watch them fry in hell, is 
that some kind of *justice*? They are, after all, *dead*, and can 
no longer do anyone any harm.  Frankly Mark, the whole idea, that 
Christians would be 'saved', and these others damned, looks to me 
like a very unchristian and uncharitable attitude.  If God can be 
so forgiving during life, I see no reason why he cannot after.
