Well, you know... the best answer I've ever heard for that came from Noel Knockwood, a Miq'maw spiritual leader from Nova Scotia. He said that (I paraphase), "My people were not created in original sin. They were created perfect." To me that kinda eliminates the need for hell. I took his words to mean that if hell is not an issue, the question becomes about how you relate to the Creator, and with your fellow beings.
Personally, I believe that to be Big Sky country right there.
I am Cree-Metis, and the Cree belief system and traditions can vary a lot from other Aboriginal teachings. Maybe you could seek out a teacher within your concept of the Great Spirit, and ask them for guidance. They may have a story or two to tell.

Even demons know that God is the big dog. No doubt about it.
Yes, even Satan knows that God is the champ. So, all demons have already lost, and they're super mad. (That's why they're called the damned) So, Satan is on a mission to make sure everyone else is damned too..
However, God sent his only son, Jesus, to us so that he may die for our sins. We're saved if we believe that Jesus is the Lord and Savior.
Of course, when you say that, and you take a katana and slaughter 50 people on the street, you're kind of a liar.. so don't let your actions betray your words, that's where the whole let's be christ-like thing comes from.
Key Note here:
If you're not with Jesus, you're against him, the forces of evil will leave you alone..However, once you give your life to Christ, be prepared, evil will come for you... and they will try to wreak havoc in your life... be ready for that.

Believing in God is not enough. You have to repent of your sins and live a life according to God's will and by doing good deeds. Believing is not enough to get you to heaven because the Devil believes in "the great spirit" also and we all know where he's going............

No. It depends on where you are right now, but I suggest you take an airplane if you want to get to Montana fast.

John 3:16 states "For he so loved the world that he gave his only begotton son so that whoever shall beleive in him shall not perish but have everlasting life" so giving yourself to Jesus gets you to heaven yes, not confessing, not attending church, not good deeds, CHRIST GETS YOU THERE, he is the beginning the middle and the end.

Personally, I think that it depends more on if you are a good person or not.
