19. Actually, a lot of Christians believe EVERYONE get a do over after death!
It comes from the belief that Christ "harrowed hell," that is to say, while in the tomb, he preached and showed his power to those who had never known monotheism, and that those who were repentant, he allowed into heaven.

Now everyone since then is open game or else gets their own redo.
