I never asked to be born, and I certainly never made some pact that if I was to be born I have to become a Christian or I go to hell.
It seems pretty unfair and, selfish, to assume god put us all on this planet only to feed his ego.

You are only putting yourself in a doubtful manner. If you have doubt about God keep it to your self. Do not show how you were raised by your family or how you were raised in a society.

It is not a case of not having a choice to be born be content that before God knew you and what a precious thought to have that when our lives are full of hardship and sadness and we cry out to Jesus he hears us He is always there not as a good luck charm but as our Heavenly Father all I can say believe upon Him.
God is not unfair and selfish He loved us so much He came to earth in the form of man, Jesus Christ He suffered so He could bridge that gap that was between man and God.

The expectation to believe in god and jesus comes from the bible and from the teachings of jesus in the Gospels Mathew,mark, luke and John.God does not have an Ego.Be
grateful you were born and it is unselfish not to thank your parents for the gift of life.Like you ,your parents never asked to be born either.I,m sure you would be happy to be anything
other than a christian.There is Buddism,Hinduism,Athism,
kabbalah,scientology,Catholocism,islam and many choices available to all God's creatures.i am sure he would prefer you choose your spirituality that makes you comfortable and happy.there is no Hell.Only spiritual darkness.

We're expected to because it's a social norm. To be outside this norm and to think for yourself and to come to your own conclusion; to formulate the TRUTH as YOU know it is wrong as far as the religous are concerned. I was raised a Catholic and later a Christian up through high school and ultimately it was those same people that drove me to Atheism. There's nothing wrong with believing what you want, stand your ground if someone challenges you. Don't worry, you won't burn in hell, simply because it doesn't exist.

maybe you did, maybe you didn't but the real point is that you are here now and what are you going to do about the Truth of eternity? Fair or unfair - doesn't change the fact that there is an eternity to face and what you decide here is going to be an ETERNAL decision.

God doesn't need us, we need God if there is no God how can we go heaven, if you don't want to go to heaven it's up to you but try to imagine that one day every one else will go to heaven except you what will be your feeling then
good luck

God allowed you to be born for a reason and a purpose. Its up to you to figure out your purpose on this earth. And to do that one needs to be in a relationship with God Almighty

Its clearly up to you what you want to believe or not believe. Remember "everyone" was given free will
by God.

Nobody, except the die hard christians and die hardder muslim expect you to believe in god.
Moderate Christians and Muslim or other religions would not force you to believe in what they believe.
