can somebody help me understand this?!

I am sorry you feel that way. Understand that any shortcoming, in terms of hostility at least, of Christians is NOT the result of the beliefs, but of the person.

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

And the last thing I'll say about it is if in fact the Christian concept of heaven and hell is true (which I believe it is but I know you do not) then it's not by God's will that you would go to hell, but by your own choosing. And it's not because God is a tyrant. He became a man and gave his own life so that you could go to heaven. The reason you won't is for rejecting God's payment for your sins. Though while you still live there is still hope, but the choice just as with Adam and Eve between relying on God and relying on yourself for salvation is in your hands.
