The only way to make it to Heaven is through Jesus our Lord and Savior. He died for us and we should be thankful for that.

Ha ha ha. I think your mind is getting a little to old to be making up lies. It must be tricking you. Atheists and other none Christians either have a different mind set or it just doesn't excites to them. If you take a look at all religions with single gods you'd be able to tell they all have a similar story line. They just call him by a different name. You have got to stop being so closed minded the only way to truly grow and learn from the bible is to question the heck out of it and just except everything so literally! I once wrote a poem that everyone thought had some super deep meaning, really it was just about a snake shedding it's skin. You have to learn to look at things from a different perspective. One of my closest friends is ruining his life acting like you are right now. Get over your self, there are going to be different views on things considering we are all unique in our own ways. This is exactly why I left the Christian church because people like you looked down upon my mother for being something she couldn't change. A single mother of four kids. Don't you dare treat people like there nothing just because they don't believe what you do. Why do you think I choose to become Catholic? They accept people for who they are. once again, Atheists don't have a heaven or hell, they just go die and rot in a hole (well that's what they think).

To anwer your question, everyone thinks they have the right idea, and since not everyone is a Christian, some people think they can make it to "Heaven" by following their religion.

I don't believe in a promised land. I also don't believe that if there was one, a perfect, loving, God would be that small minded and ignorant. On the other hand I find it easy to believe that people like you are that ignorant. Do you see Heaven as your own personal country club?

Oh well, I guess if I'm not invited.....
I always thought that was sort of unfair. What about the people who die and have never been exposed to Christianity? How do you expect them to go to Heaven through Jesus? The year and region you're born in could be your one-way ticket to hell?

Why do Christians insist that's true? Two thirds of the world don't believe in the Christian God or the "only way" to Heaven. Christians can't even agree among themselves.
What if YOU are wrong?

Aww, bless your heart if you really believe that... How old are you?
I hope you aren't too young because I hate to burst your bubble when I tell you there is no heaven so I don't think I am going to your heaven.

I am waiting for the Good Fairy from Gondwannaland to take me away. Coca Cola and potato chips all over and everyone gets a IPOD with free tunes. We sing and dance and have 274,362,194,154 television channels with no commercials. It beats the #$%@ out of mana, nectar, harps, wings, and clouds!

Everyone has access to hear The Word of God, one way or the other. Those who pass up the opportunity must take responsibility for their own actions since God has given everyone ample opportunity to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour.
People who do not believe in God, Jesus Christ will not go to the Promised Land. When I say believe, there is much more to it than just saying, "Oh, yeah, God is real." Learn for yourself. Do not let others do your learning for you.

We don't think we're going to Heaven because we don't believe in it. Other religions expect to go to their own version of Heaven, or to simply decompose.
