That would make it rough on a deaf ,blind, mentally challenged person who didn't have a preacher to preach to him/her before they died.
Is it possible that it has a different meaning?
I think you are grasping at straws here. To hear means to have the message communicated. If the person is not physically able to have any communication, then that is Gods issue to judge. Would that fall under the age of accountability? If they never reached a mental age to understand, then they wouldn't be held responsible.
