then why do most (or all) Christian (fundimentalists) say that non-Christians are going to Hell because of their bad religion choice? A judgement, although irrelevant due to His dying, not based on "good works", but faith in Him (AKA Jesus) convicts every person to the afterlife ruled by Him?
("power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely").
Shorter/sweeter answers have a better chance of being read and therefore winning the judgement that I, as God of this question, will deliver upon thee.

So if Jesus is holding a ticket for me in will-call at the "Pearly Gates" and I forget my ID, then can't I go to another concert some other time?
Also, if He died for all of Human Kinds' sins, and all I have to do is accept Him to gain this benefit, then does it make me an animal or not human to not accept Him?

Like this mumbo-jumbo...What about Job? Good tree, no fruit?
"Mt 7:17 In the same way, every good tree bears good fruit. But a bad tree bears bad fruit.
Mt 7:18 A good tree can’t bear bad fruit. And a bad tree can’t bear good fruit.
Mt 7:19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down. It is thrown into the fire.
Mt 7:20 You can tell each tree by its fruit.
Mt 7:21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven. Only those who do what my Father in heaven wants will enter.
Mt 7:22 “Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord! Lord! Didn’t we prophesy in your name? Didn’t we drive out demons in your name? Didn’t we do many miracles in your name?’
Mt 7:23 Then I will tell them clearly, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who do evil!’ "
