First we must correct the premise that they are innocent. They are not innocent but guilty before God.
The gospel has gone into all the world. There are parts of the world where evil men have suppressed the gospel and allowed evil to rule. The children and the children's children of these are suffering because of this self imposed darkness.
John 3:15-21 shows forth Gods great provision and mans rejection along with the reasons. It is sad and it should plague all of us. Its called a burden for lost souls. I cannot reach them all but by Gods grace I will reach those He allows me to reach.
In other words, people who remain in their own faith system (taught to them by their parents, parents-parents and who do not accept the Christian gospel ... are evil.
I will turn it around for a moment: Let us say a Jew comes up to me and tries to convert me. I tell him no. I am a Christian. I was born a Christian and thank you but NO thank you. My mind tells me that I am correct and that he/she has it all wrong. Does this make me evil, or just ignorant of the truth?
Finally for those who do NOT oppose the gospel directly (in other words, their children and their children's children ... are those ones also going to Hell?

or man
over TRUTH
that's on you
(not YOU as in you... lol you as in man/woman in general)
no one who honestly wants truth will find it anywhere other than Christ
i think the biggest assumption youre making is that
if you are born in a "religion"
you will definitely believe it
this isnt true.....
