But christians don't want everyone in heaven, they want people in hell suffering for eternity (their version of hell, that is. It varies from denomination to denomination). They don't care that Muslims think that switching to Jesus is as soul-threatening as Christians switching to Muhummad. They just think that they should doom everyone walking to hell by teaching them about THEIR savior, regardless of the other person's beliefs.
They say stuff like "if you saw someone about to get hit by a truck wouldn't you warn them?" but forget that at the time of their warning, those people were on the sidewalk and in no danger of getting hit, that is, until the christian pushed them out into the street by scaring them off the sidewalk with their love/hate message.
But hey, this is what they're programmed to do. You may as well ask them to stop believing in Jesus. They're more than capable of doing so, but they're too afraid or arrogant to stop.

Yeah, Christ was VERY CRUEL!!!! He healed the sick, fed the masses, took beatings & Died for our Sins, one Bad Dude!!! Scriptures say that All Shall be exposed to the Word (just like U have) before Christ returns giving No One an "Excuse"!!! The Nazis tried to say "I was just Following Orders" and that one didn't fly either!!! U did get it right though, Ur "Hindu" made a "Conscience Choice" as All Do who will go to Hell!!! So,... like being "Born" into a Religion now gets U to Heaven, is that what Ur saying??? Seems kinda Un-Fair to me that Ur god would hold Ur Birth Against U??? Ur premise that Christ might "Say No" is Sooooo Tweaked!!! All throughout Scripture we read that it is "Gods Plan" that NONE should Perish but that All should have Everlasting Life. It is very clear that "No man (or woman) comes to the Father (God) but by Me (Christ)"!!! Of course U are Welcome to follow Ur Parents if U wish, as I'm sure they have the Power to Save U from Ur Sins & get U to Heaven having themselves overcome Death & Sin as Christ did Yes??? I think U need to Drop the Angry Outbursts & Learn the Truth by reading Scripture Before Condemning those who have, or is this what Ur Parents Taught U??? John

If you are the owner of anything..., but let's say your house. Is it right or fair for you to decide what or whom will enter? Is it cruel to tell the truth that ONLY family members can enter and enjoy your food, love, blessings, etc.?
Is it cruel to say that the only way you can qualify is to be born into this family?
You built the house and the rules are the same for all. Either be born in or you are NOT in. Now there is a special clause that IF you want to be "counted" as a birth child, just allow for the special privilege of making covenant by receiving "the blood covenant" offered and have a relationship with the covenant maker.
It's always YOUR choice. There will come a time when this offer expires and all who are not under this birth or covenant relationship will be forever shut out due to an upgrade of provisions for those who ARE born in (Jewish) or those under covenant and with relationship with covenant maker (Jesus). You don't have to even consider it, but other's don't have a "right" to even criticize you because it is YOUR HOUSE, YOUR PLAN, YOUR BLESSINGS AND YOU WANT EVERYONE TO COME THAT WILL COME IN UNDER THE GROUND RULES.
Now, how's that for reasoning with those who DON'T want to comply, but who complain about the offer?
It's your house.., no excuses, no compromise.
What's not fair about that?
What's Hindu got to do with it? God, the homeowner, created YOU, not some set of religious rules. Do as you please, but what you suggest isn't an option. NO SIDE OFFERS ANYWHERE. What you got to lose except your eternal reward with God.., the ONLY true father of heaven and earth.

Jesus Himself said that He is the Only way to the Father. (John 14:6). We Christians did not make this up. It comes from THE LORD HIMSELF!
We will NEVER stop preaching this because it is true! We do not want people to go to hell. We want them to know God and experience the life He offers to all who will serve Him only.
It's as two other followers of Jesus once said, "Judge for yourselves, whether it is right in God's sight to obey you rather than God. For we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard." (Acts 4:19-20)

..and those of us who believe there is no God, no heaven and no hell get pretty fed up with it too.
There is way too much intolerance in the world. I find it hard to believe as both Jesus and Mohammad preached tolerance.
Mohammad and Moses were both direct descendants of Abraham so Muslims, Jews and Christians have a way too much in common to be fighting over faith.

Wonderful point! We can all go to heaven if the christians would just shut up! Of course, we'd have to listen to them for ETERNITY, so I guess I'd rather join Ghandi or Buddha in hell. However, if I had to spend eternity with ignorant christians, it wouldn't really be heaven for me, would it?
(Oh no! Maybe that's my hell! Okay, I believe Jesus is my savior--that way I can avoid spending eternity with christians!)

God is loving God and Jesus is His Son and is also loving. God and Jesus want everybody to come to Heaven, but mankind can't come on his own because way back in the Garden of Eden God told Adam and Eve that He had planted a garden. This garden had many trees. God said to Adam and Eve that they could eat of every tree in the garden but one--The Tree of Life. This was the tree in the center of the garden. God said that if they ate of this tree, they would die. Now, Satan heard God telling Adam and Eve this and he came and asked Adam if they (Adam and Eve) could eat from any of those beautiful trees in the garden. Adam said that they could eat from all the trees except one--The Tree of Life. Adam said to Satan that God said that he and Eve would die if they ate of the tree in the center of the garden. Satan told Adam a lie--he said "You'll not die. God knows that if you eat of the Tree of Life you'll become like Him. You won't die." Adam believed Satan and picked some of the fruit and ate it and offered it to his wife Eve who also ate it. This is why mankind must die. From then on, there was no way mankind could get to Heaven on his own because he had sinned. To sin is to break God's law. The fact that mankind could not join God in Heaven broke His heart. It also broke the heart of Jesus. Jesus said to God that He (Jesus) would come and take the burden of Sin for the whole world. Then anyone who believed on Him could come to Heaven.
When a person believes that Jesus is the Son of God and that He died on the cross for the sins of the world and that He rose on the third day and later ascended to Heaven, this person is said to be sanctified. Sanctified means "Just as if I'd never sinned" so if a person believes in Jesus, he goes to Heaven when he dies. On the other hand, if a person does not believe in Jesus, he goes to Hell when he dies.
God does not send people to Hell who have never heard about Jesus. People have many chances in their lives to hear about Jesus and Heaven. There is the local church. If the person is unable to get around, there are services on the televison and on the radio. There are even religious columns in some newspapers. God and Christ have done everything that they can--all man has to do to get to Heaven is to believe in Jesus.

I think rejecting a God who died for you is a lot more cruel...
Romans 2:11-15; those who haven't heard are judged differently by their hearts. likely more maticulously.

I suspect only Christians that reject Christ are doomed, and that only in their own minds, they create their own hell.
