Catholics believe everyone who isn't Catholic is going to hell...Lutherans only worry about Lutherans and don't care about anyone else.

Lutherans are Christians and Catholics believe they can go to heaven.
The Catechism of the Catholic Church states:
"Furthermore, many elements of sanctification and of truth" are found outside the visible confines of the Catholic Church: "the written Word of God; the life of grace; faith, hope, and charity, with the other interior gifts of the Holy Spirit, as well as visible elements."
Christ's Spirit uses these Churches as means of salvation. All these blessings come from Christ and lead to him."
With love in Christ.

Catholic do not believe lutherans go to hell. This is a God decision.

No, the Roman Catholic church recognizes the Lutheran churches as true christian denominations and recognizes their sacraments. So if you were married or baptized Lutheran it would be considered valid in the Roman Catholic church and treated as such.
And any Catholic here should know this.

Catholics believe everybody is going to hell that isn't Catholic because according to Catholic teachings, the only way you can go to heaven is by salvation to Jesus Christ therefore if you don't believe in Jesus Christ (according to Catholics) you cannot reach heaven...I should know, I was raised one

First of all we do not know who is going to hell. That is for the LORD JESUS to decide. We should not wish that on anyone no matter how evil they are. We are judging one another and that is wrong. The LORD wants everyone to be saved but HE will not force HIS will upon anyone. HE has given mankind free will and to choose. But if you choose to live according to the flesh that is on you and HE will judge you for that where HE sends you ( LAKE OF FIRE) (ETENAL LIFE) is totally up to the indidivual. Salvation has been placed in your hands.

All religions are narrow-minded and basically think anyone who doesn't agree with them is going to hell. It's sad, really.

all of the people who do not trust in the lord, all of the stillborn kids, all of the animals (because they are not aware of jesus), all of the gays, all of the people who do not thoroughly accept the bible as a magic and completely non-fictional book, and all of the people who do not go to church every Sunday go to hell.
