That reminds me of a joke:
One day a woman was sitting in the passenger section of an airplane, quietly reading her Bible. The man sitting next to her saw what she was doing, and he snickered. He said, "You don’t really believe all that stuff in there do you?—the parting of the Red Sea, the multiplication of the loaves and fishes, the Resurrection of Jesus—you can’t possibly take all that seriously."
She said, "Yes, I do. If it’s in the Bible, I believe it."
He said, "What about that guy who was swallowed by that whale? You think that actually happened?
She replied, "You mean Jonah. Yes, I believe that happened—he spent three days and three nights in the belly of a whale."
The man said, "That’s pure foolishness. How could anyone survive for that long inside a whale’s stomach?"
The lady responded, "To be perfectly honest, I don’t know. I guess when I get to heaven, I’ll ask Jonah."
The man replied sarcastically, "And what if he isn’t in heaven?"
The lady answered, "Then you can ask him!"

How did you get to heaven?
If you were following a prophet and he didn't get there, how did you?
The calling is the only way you will get there.
Called to what?
Called to believe in Jesus.

Forget the prophets... If your religion doesn't have the Messiah, you'll never see Heaven anyway!

Not all religions have Heavens.
If that is the case, well then, tough luck. Actually, this is quite possible for many religions, because unless every religion is correct (which could be possible), then there are bound to be some people who are disappointed.

That is an interesting question because it presumes that the answerer is able to consider that theirs migh not be THE religion or God's religion.
I probably won't have to worry about that.

They're all located in downtown heaven. I heard Muhammed had to change to the east side due to vandalism in his property.

it basically means he wasn't or isn't a true prophet called of God Almighty himself and did not accept Jesus Christ as His Lord and personal Saviour.

What if your religion has a god and when you go to Hell, There He is, on the right hand of Satan.
And thats where Jesus is and always will be.

As some one would say, why worship the messager?
