Is God really God? In Christian faith we learn that only those who believe in him may receive his eternal, everlasting and indescribable love and eternal life in heaven with him. But what about the others? Though many of us may not be believers, but still we may be good and loving as christians, do we deserve to go to hell?

There is no such thing as heaven or hell, these all exist on earth. If you lead a good life, loving all and wishing the best for all, you will always be happy - thats heaven. If you make other people's lives miserable, then you'll lead a miserable life yourself - hell.
'God' is a concept, not a person, 'God' is more like love, or knowledge - God is the ultimate truth, the feeling of unitedness with the whole universe. God is bliss. And God is infinite love. It is silly to even think of God as someone who will punish. We make our own lives miserable by doing nonsensical things.

Okay, here we go again...
None of us are "good." NONE. We are all evil, wicked and bad people. Look around you, do you really think that if left to our own devices we'll do the right thing? Really? Read Lord of the Flies sometime, or take an example like Hurricane Katrina.
When chaos ensued, what was the first thing people did? Robbed, raped, and looted. We are inherently evil.
NONE of us are "good" enough to make it into Heaven.
God made one punishment, death, and one way out of it, Jesus. He did it that way so that is it SIMPLE and easy for us to understand. There are no "passes" based on your ethnicity, your gender, the color of your skin, how many times you went to church or how many times you said a bad word. And you know what? That's FAIR. That's the real definition of fair.
ONE way: "I am the Way, the Life, and the Truth. No one comes to the Father but by me."

That is a really hard question and one that we study in Theology
I am afraid to say that from a Christian perspective Jesus said:
"I am the way and the truth and the life, no-one come to the father but through me"

It's said that none believers suffer the least in Hell, which makes sense when you think about it.
Why suffer for crimes if you don't believe or support the laws, hell is for the people that know the difference between right and wrong and for whatever reason knowingly chose wrong.

You'll get a chance to rethink in the afterlife. Your eyes will be opened & a whole new way of thinking will be opened up to you. Don't worry it may be a tougher road to follow & would be easier if you would figure it out ahead of time, but I don't doubt you'll come through when it really counts.

well i dont think this will answer your question, but itll give you something to think about... if there is no god and no heaven or hell and i believe in god, then when i die i have nothing to lose... but if there is a god and you dont believe you have everything to lose... just give it some though if you dont believe in any higher being... it makes sense

Jesus Christ said, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me". You have to accept Jesus as your Personal Savior. Being a good person is not going to get you to heaven, you have to accept Jesus into your heart.

God is the purest kind of information.
Information could be translate and change into energy.
God is the purest form of energy.
Energy could be change into material (by informtion).
Nature is the purest form of energy (god)
God made us, made galaxies and the whole nature by itself.
"Koran" says: The God is the light of skys and earths.
What "light" means here?
light is the purest form, the most beautiful and visual type of enegy.
good luck

I was thinking about this. Wouldn't it be funny if everyone was worshiping the same god? I mean seriously there can only be one right?

Yeah, you non-believing infidels go to hell regardless. Sorry, rules are rules.
We are the sweet selected few
The rest of you be damned
There's room enough in hell for you
We don't want heaven crammed
