Do you think that Christians and Muslims and those of all other religions alike will all go to heaven? Do you believe that there are multiple ways to get to heaven? I'm not expressing my opinion of this subject at the moment. I just want yours.

Only those who accept Jesus as their personal Savior will get to heaven. All others go to hell.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

If everyone goes to Heaven, then just live whichever way suits you and when you finally die and go to this heaven, say hello to Hitler and all of the other really bad people of the world.
If everyone goes to heaven, then there will be practicing criminals/murderers/rapists/and all of the like there.
Would that be Heaven?
No. People who go to Heaven must be redeemed somehow so that they will become different kinds of people. I don't believe that everyone is redeemed automatically; they must choose to be redeemed and they must also choose the right mode of redemption (one that works). I believe there is only one mode of redemption, the sacrifice of Christ on the cross. Only by trusting in Christ, the Son of God who is also called God's sacrificial lamb, will anyone have a hope of seeing a true heaven.
Only the redeemed go to Heaven, the other place where everyone goes is more like Hell; in fact, it is!

When souls disincarnate (the corporeal body dies) and return to the Spirit World, they will eventually return (reincarnate) to a corporeal existence on this planet or another depending on their evolutionary level, or mission. All souls/spirits are tasked with evolving to a pure form. Some take longer than others depending on how they use their free will. Their ability and desire to make correct moral decisions reflect their evolution. All spirits will eventually evolve to a pure form, thus, in the maintstream concept enter "Heaven". It not a question of "if", but of "when". A spirit cannot unevolve, it can only choose to be stagnant or choose to go forward, it can never go back.

No not everyone. I forget where it says this in the Bible but I think it was in the book of John Jesus said that you have to wear a cross in order to go to heaven. No cross, no heaven.

If we receive Jesus as our Savior, our penalty for sin is paid. We are adopted into God's family, and Heaven is our eternal home. If we reject Jesus, we remain alienated from the Lord and under condemnation for our sin. We are destined to experience eternal judgment. God won't accept any of man's excuses because there is no acceptable defense for unbelief. (Acts 4:12)

The bible says 144,000 have been brought from the earth (rev.14:1-3)- They will be Jesus' corulers, ruling over those on a paradise earth.
God's purpose for man was to fulfill the earth and it remains the same, man to live on earth, but Jesus made a covenant to them, his little flock/anointed ones that they will be born in spirit and be able to go to heaven, as stated above, as co-rulers of Christ.

The Bible says "He who has the Son has life (eternal life) 1 John 5 v 12.
In other words eternal life are for those who have accepted God's gift of salvation.
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Only a small amount of people will go to heaven...only the true believers.

No,
Grace is God's Riches At Christ's Expense. Grace rules out all human merit. It is the product of God that is given by God, because of who He is not because of who we are. It is the means of our salvation (Eph. 2:8-9). We are no longer under the Law, but under grace (Rom. 6:14).

No heaven to go to. You can, however, go to Texas. It's the closest thing to heaven.
