Not all people are christian because that is the way they are taught. They only know what their parents taught them and their parents taught them and so on. They don't won't to take the time to find the truth. But you know think about it if God created all things then don't you think God created all religions? That it is the way he wants it? If God didn't create all religions then I don't think he would hold it against anyone for what they are taught to believe. I really don't think it matters what you believe as long as you are a good person and you do what is right toward your fellow man. In the end God will understand. I don't believe that there is a heaven or hell like in a place. I believe that heaven is inside of us. Hell is just a made up place.

For exactly the same reason everyone isn't Islamic or Jewish. For exactly the same reason everyone isn't Caucasion or African-American. We are different, and come from all different backgrounds. There are tons of people that have never even heard of Christianity or Jesus. Every religion has their "True, Sacred, Holy" text... people just have to decide what THEY believe is real, based on the information that they've been given.

some people will... some people wont .. cant measure success by whether everyone believes... Jesus did nothing wrong and some people believed and some peple didnt, it's the way things are
no man comes to Me unless the Father draw him John 6
you make it sound like people become Christians because they see a rational reason and like rational people respond... but at some level the sinful nature of people limits their thinking and the desiresof their hearts and in the end... also the reasons for Christianity are rational, it takes grace for a person in a sin broken world to accept them in a saving way

That's fair. We (non christians) don't make sense to you. (btw, when did catholics become non christians??? That'll be news to my folks.) Why is it so hard for you to understans that you, as a christian, might not make sense to someone else?
News flash. Christianity is not the only one, true way. You are entitled to think it is, you are entitled to preach about it....we are entitled to listen and be swayed, or not. Not everyone thinks, believes or acts the way you do. It just means that they have their own idea on what religion and spirituality means to them. Doesn't make them bad, doesn't make them evil. Doesn't even mean they're going to hell.
Judge not.

In theory you have to be a Christian to go to heaven, but that presupposes that you believe in heaven and hell in the first place.
Not all religions believe in those.
Which means that they're not bound to the narrow rules that apply to Christianity.

You know I wondered once why people don't accept Jesus. And in the bible, Jesus said that people don't "come to the light, because their deeds are evil". I thought that was pretty harsh. After all...not believing in Jesus because your deeds are evil? What about, you just don't believe?
But I believe the bible is God's word, so why would I question something Jesus said? If He stated that is why people won't come to the "light"...who am I to question it?
So...that was my answer.

Its is really simple. Other people don't believe in the Christian society.
Which means that also don't believe in going to hell if your don't believe in Jesus. And some might not even believe in hell!
Imagine!
"Cathlics" are Christians. And "Islams" don't believe in your heaven and your hell, so they casn't believe in going there too.
And believe it or not, there are people who don't believe in religion or in fairy tales or in Santa Claus or in the Easter Bunny.
Also, their not rediculously stupid like you.

I am an atheist. I do not believe in either heaven or hell so that question really has no meaning in my belief system.
Not everyone is christian and nor do they want to be. We all have freewill to choose our own path be it belief or non belief.

Belief in God and living rightly saves. Belief in Christ means belief in the visible God as opposed to not visible.
