God is very clear about what is the way to heaven. You suggest that all good people go to hell and all bad people go to heaven. It does not work that way.
I read this here once and I think it was well said: All good people do not go to heaven, but all forgiven people go to heaven. Christians are going to heaven only because we accept Jesus to save us. We all fall short from the glory of God but Christians are the ones that admit that we need Jesus for our salvation. Accepting Jesus is not just accepting His blessings. Accepting Jesus is also accepting His way of life. Jesus helps us to mature in our faith if we let Him.
In God's court the "criminal" ( "law breaker" ) goes free. That sounds unfair, but believe me, we do not want the fair system. No one can make it by Law. Because no one can keep the whole Law. And if we break even one Law, we are lawbreakers. We all need His mercy and grace, and who ever accepts it is going to be saved.
God is not playing favorites. His offer is the same for everyone.

Freedom of Choice
[33:72] We have offered the responsibility (freedom of choice) to the heavens and the earth, and the mountains, but they refused to bear it, and were afraid of it. But the human being accepted it; he was transgressing, ignorant.
[33:73] For GOD will inevitably punish the hypocrite men and the hypocrite women, and the idol worshipping men and the idol worshipping women. GOD redeems the believing men and the believing women. GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful.
*33:72 The animals, trees, stars, etc. took advantage of this most gracious offer. See Appendix 7."

Read this to see how extreme the business of the unsaved has become even when little children are involved!!!
http://www.bettybowers.com/newsunsaved.html
A poor dead child was dug up and buried elsewhere when her church found out she was mentally retarded and so could not have accepted Jesus Christ.
"This is a resting place for true Christians," observed Honorary Pastor Harry Hardwick, waving his hand in the direction of perfectly manicured acres of greenery peppered with marble monuments and mausoleums, some the size of convenience stores. "If you want to bury trash, find yourself a landfill."

If a person worship some one other than God the master of Heaven and earth will go to hell. IThe person who somebody worship Jesus also will go to hell.
If somebody recieve a message from Prophet of God and rejects the message, the also they will go to hell even if they worshipped only God.

Everyone is a sinner and under the wrath of God, and in danger of hell fire. But God through His great mercy decided to save a people for Himself. His death on the cross was in payment for those people He would save.
Honestly it doesn't make sense - that God would spare anyone from hell. I don't know why He is so merciful and compassionate, but I am thankful for it.
"As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid. For he saith to Moses, I WILL HAVE MERCY ON WHOM I WILL HAVE MERCY, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy."
Romans 9:13-16

As in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. 1Cor.15:22-28;
ALL MEANS ALL
Rev.21:8; The second death. The first is the fault of Adam, the second is the fault of the person, any lost has only self to blame.
Acts 2:27-31; Jesus was resurrected back to life out of hell the tomb, cave, grave or sepulchre.

That's what Christians believe, at least. But they can't just say that they've accepted Jesus... they really have to do it.
And no other religion believes that their God prefers them to the rest of the world, I suppose. "Playing favorites..."

The best one is, you can get some bloke who spends his life murdering, raping and thieving, and as long as at the end he goes "Oh I'm sorry God" it's all peachy. Compare this to some kid who gets a load of **** at school and in a moment of adolescent weakness tops himself, he's commited a mortal sin he won't get the opportunity to regret, and it's straight to hell. What a load of bol£$cks.

The reason it doesn't make sense to you is because you start off with the premise that there are "good people". While some people may appear to be "good" in comparison to other people, the Bible is clear that ALL people have broken God's laws and deserve his just punishment for their transgressions.
The Bible goes on to teach that because of his love, God has graciously provided payment for our sins by sending his beloved Son down from Heaven to take our place by living a sin free life and laying it down on our behalf on the cross where He was publicly executed.
When a person turns away from their sins and trusts in Jesus for their salvation their sins are counted as having been paid for. If a person continues to live a life characterized by sin, or in your words if they remain a "bad person" then the Bible teaches that they have forfeited the sacrifice that God made for all repentant sinners.
Hebrews 10:26 For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 but a fearful expectation of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries. 28 Anyone who has set aside the law of Moses dies without mercy on the evidence of two or three witnesses. 29 How much worse punishment, do you think, will be deserved by the one who has spurned the Son of God, and has profaned the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has outraged the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know him who said, "Vengeance is mine; I will repay." And again, "The Lord will judge his people." 31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
As to what exactly happens to people who have never heard of Jesus, the Bible is not entirely clear. For instance you have this passage to consider.
Romans 2:14 For when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that the work of the law is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness, and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even excuse them 16 on that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus.
What is important for everyone who has heard of Jesus to know is that they will be without excuse on the day of judgment if they come before God hoping to be justified on their own merits instead of accepting the gracious gift of justification that God has provided for all who will by faith accept it.
