Religion is much more than a sure way to heaven dear. I am afraid any seven world belief systems would not be close enough in their doctrine to work in conjunction with another. Chaos would reign.

The key word here is "practice" all those religions at once. Something is either true or it is not true. You could not therefore be practicing all 7 at once with sincere conviction since you cannot believe contrary faiths at the same time. I do, however, like the idea that one wishes to embrace all faiths which shows respect for others and open-mindedness.
Regarding any man-made guarantee to heaven - be wary - since even the 9-11 terrorists thought they were going to paradise.

If what you're worried about is getting into heaven, then you need to look at those religions which actually offer a promise of heaven, specifically Judaism, Christianity and Islam, in all their various forms. Not all religions are concerned with heaven or even believe in a heaven.
But I would suggest that religion is about MUCH more than a ticket to the "good" place in the afterlife. It's about a journey of discovering who God is, and who you are in relation to God, and what you can become. If that's what you're really interested in, then you'll find you're much more concerned with discovering Truth than worrying whether you're doing all the right things to get into heaven or not. It leaves you free to draw on truth wherever you find it. I practice Christianity, for example, but love finding God in Judaism or Islam or Taoism or Buddhism or Hinduism or Paganism or anywhere else. (That's at least 7, right?). Because I believe that God is the source of all Truth, so wherever there is Truth, God is there.
Just something to think about.

Well, you can do anything you want to do. But it's not Christianity, even if you were to give it a turn.
There was a king that tried to be all inclusive too. God didn't like the idea to say the least!
1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-five years.
2And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, after the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.
3For he built up again the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he reared up altars for Baal, and made a grove, as did Ahab king of Israel; and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.
5And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD.
He wasn't making any points since God wanted no others to be worshipped except Himself.

Good idea. If you do them all you are bound to get there. I use to think that then I began practicing Krishna Consciousness. Once you understand Krishna you understand all paths. It is quite sublime. I am also a lover of Christ and so many other of Gods Sons and Incarnations. He is so unlimited. for more info on Krishna go to harekrishnatemple.co Read Bhagavad Gita As it is By Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada.(The Universal Path to Enlightenment)

Good strategy. It would be mighty embarassing for many a Abrahimic follower to one day find out that the God he or she devoted their life to following was not the real God and it turned out to be someone else like Zeus,Ra, Vishnu or even another being nobody even thought of the possibility that he,she, or it exists.
70 years was not enough time to read about The Great ZabbaDabba? Into the lake of fire with you.

Sure.
having a religion is like having a passport to heaven.
Last time when my friend did what you did, when he arrived to the
Checkpoint.
He was caught with 7 different passport to 7 different heaven.
He was locked for 24 hours and now he was sent to "Hell".
Think Hard....

Take all the parts of each religion that appeal to you and blend them into your own spiritual belief system. I don't think there is anything wrong with creating your own way to connect to God, or the Creator (or whatever you want to call it). I don't think people will go to hell if they don't follow a specific religion the way it is preached to them. I don't think God is an angry God who punishes, or a jealous God who smites the unbelievers. Our Creator loves us all, and I think there are many paths to atonement with the Creator. Your path is your choice.

An unusual question, it sounds like a challenge though, from a philosophical perspective. Perhaps 7 different Gods....
