I've heard the whole gambit, from those that would say definitely yes, they go to hell because they have not accepted Jesus, to those that say they will be judged by some other standard (according to the light they have is the phrase often used), to those that say it doesn't matter, only the elect, those chosen especially by god, get to go to heaven and the rest can't do anything about it no matter what they do.
