What happens to truly evil people when die?

That's it in a nutshell nanna.

He didn’t die knowing that he had been loved. For me the thought that all my life I have had someone to love me is the most consoling thought I can think of.

They die exactly like everyone else. There's no Hell or Heaven - that's just jam tomorrow to keep the masses quiet.

What happens when we die is a complete unknowable mystery. So Santana choose to believe what brings peace within your own heart, you say you believe in a kind and loving God, I’d suggest that’s because you yourself are a kind and loving person.

They probably go to Paris. Seriously, no-one knows what happens after death. Myself, I think nothing happens. There is no continuation in an afterlife, heaven and hell and purgatory don't exist and the body decomposes if buried.

After death, we go through a review of our lives. Hopefully, most people will accept that they have committed sins and will want to put things right. However, there are those who will not acknowledge that they have done anything wrong. These people are kept in a type of limbo. What is worrying is that there are able to influence living people.
There is still a battle between good and evil, even after death.

Agreed, just like any other body. The only thing left is our example, good or bad.

Why has this old old thread been revived

They get reincarnated as politicians

I don’t know about evil people but I knew a very kind, catholic man who died in the care home where I worked, suddenly, I heard Latin, chant type singing, I checked round as I thought it was a radio, all the residents were sound asleep. The next Sunday mass, I told the priest, his answer was that I was fortunate to have heard that & that the gentleman was sure to be with the Heavenly Father - I was eighteen at the time, I’ve never forgotten it.
Point being if there is place above, there must be a place for evil people down below.

I knew someone who brought a lot of unhappiness to his family and children. When my father died I insisted that he was kept at the back of the church as I did not want him polluting my father's final journey. The rest of the family respected my wishes. I was VERY blunt about how I felt the morning of the funeral. Never regretted it but I was congenial to him as the mourners left the church and thanked him for coming as I did everyone else. He was just so toxic in life.

I think if there's a God surely he would
be fair and the truly evil would be treated how he felt best I can't really imagine they would be burning in hell though If I believed in god he would have to be compassionate

I believe we were given free will with all the suffering. I have no understanding how people do evil acts. In my life I have met a couple of people who were truly good, the opposite.

God knows people inside and out.

In the bible it says there will be a resurrection of the righteous and the unrighteous

I believe that when we leave this earth there are different levels we can go to . The good go to higher levels and the bad to low levels.

I believe we pass over to the other side and our soul lives on . I've seen spirit and smell it .

The Bible has a lot to say on what happens after physical death. In the last chapters of Revelation it has some very clear statements, like who cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. And what one needs to do to enter the kingdom of heaven. Rev also tells what heaven will look like to us, and seeing others there. We can explore those scriptures if you like.

Who are you expecting to answer the question?

No advice, just an opinion - I'm not a believer in an almighty or afterlife, so your BIL will like the rest of us just return to the earth, whence we came.

I agree with this.
Maybe there will be nobody to mourn him or have good memories which is a sad way to leave this world.

No one can answer the question. Some people are born without conscience. I believe there are more good people than bad. As for the evil, like Hitler, they just don't care, only about themselves. Life isn't fair, why are good people subject to unspeakable torture and deaths by evil people. there are no answers.

Only God knows and fully understands the answer, OP.

Our lives here are an experiment. We can learn from everything that happens to us. We are all part of the Cosmic reality. We are all part of what some call God. Be well.
