i.e., ones that don't believe that everyone else is going to hell.

And thank you, Buster, for illustrating exactly what I meant by "exclusive." Buster here believes that he and his are the ONLY ones getting into heaven. If that's what heaven really is... I hope he's right. I'd hate to spend eternity with a bunch of holier-than-thou, self-righteous, uptight bigots.

Wicca and other forms of religious witchcraft don't believe any one religion is right for everyone, and they don't believe in any sort of "eternal punishment."
Discordianism believes it's the "best of all one true religions," and happily accepts members of any and all beliefs.
Other neopagan religions: Druidry, Asatru, Kemeticism, Hellensimos, etc. believe they're the right religion for their followers, but don't believe in converting people, and don't believe anything bad will happen to people of other faiths.
Hinduism, as a whole, is very tolerant of different religious beliefs. Buddhism is also non-exclusive, and has been blended with many other religions. Taoism, also.
It's pretty much just the Abrahamic religions--Christianity and Islam mostly, and a few sects of Judaism--that think their religion should be inflicted on all of humanity, and that people who don't follow it will be punished. It's rather attached to monotheism. Non-monotheistic religions aren't prone to that particular bit of dogma.

Jesus said, "if you confess your sins, they will be forgiven in heaven"
From my objective this appears to be simple.
But try to live your life without sin. Then you need to be forgiven with Jesus name and blood.
Confession of a sin is something most of us avoid (i.e. we don't sin in the first place, or try not to)
I don't belive madmen can call any religion a religion. The 911 events showed that.
None of us know the answers, but I know there is only one God, and I do not want to meet the the 911 terroists in heaven. I'll kill them for the 3rd time in their pathethic life.
Thanks,
Buster

The Bible is the evidence of Christianity. close by individuals were not presented to the bible until eventually 1800's. there have been societies, kit holders, various products to carry your prolonged kinfolk and ideology mutually. No Bible to lower back that way of existence. Catholics and Mormons got here and created their personal "guide" for his or her faith. you could also "religiously" brush your enamel each and every morning. the way, the fact and the gentle. The Lord.

All religions believe that not everybody is going to hell, with the exception of Satanism.

Wicca. We believe there are many paths to enlightenment and we don't have a Hell.

I'm agnostic, but in my views of God and all that, everybody would go to heaven (and hell, temporarily).

yes, that is hinduism, because it never claimed that only hinduism have the ultimet truth. most of hindus belives that i am right as well as you and others. they realised that God is one and there are his many faces in the world. and this is undoubtly ultimet truth.
