Because Jesus chose YOU and not them. Because they were born into the religion of their parents (just like you) but God created YOU with the ability to call yourself "Special" because YOU are SAVED AND THEY ARE NOT? Because Muslims Buddists Mormons and ALL OTHERS were not worthy of Christs Love and so he made their entry even more difficult than yourz because they will not know Jesus like you do and will not know Gods true Love because God in his Loving manner allowed them to be deceived just so that YOU know they are going to Hell while YOU and all your fellow Christians are blessed with eternal Glory and happiness while residing in Heaven knowing that the poor souls of those that JUST DIDNT KNOW Burn in torment. Isn't the Christian philosophy WONDeRFUL! WE ARE SO HAPPY we are going to heaven and TOO bad that ALL others BURN! But that is God's choice. EXCEPT FOR ONE THING. GOD CAST OUT HIS FAVORITE ANGEL. and sAtAn had to be a Christian because he KNEW YOU! Feeling a little crossed?

The Jews have a direct covenant with God, Christians who are saved have a connection with Jesus . he said that he was the way into heaven. All other religions have a connection with god or their savior. The belief that you have a ticket to glide into heaven is supported by most religions. Islam is one that doesn't get you in automatically even if you've lived a holy life. So as far as the prejudice goes , They are not any better than anybody else and the belief they are is a breaking of the commandments. so they shoot themselves in the foot by their elitism.

That is the most twisted description of a Christian I have ever heard, if you really believe thats what real Chistians believe then you are wrong.
First of all you don't have to be part of the religion you were born into, you are not born into christianity, you learn and start following the teachings of Christ then you will be a true Christians, we were warned not to listen to those parading in long robes twisting the word of God to their own means.
Don't worry so much about what we believe but more about what you believe and feal to be true, and yes God cast out the Angel and this is why Jesus recognized this Angel whenever it was taunting him.
I have never felt crossed by God only by the people who put themselves up there and use His name for personal gain or War or cause, God has only one goal to teach us how to love one another like He loves us, if you have children, don't you demand respect from them, why should it be different for God, he deserves respect, and wouldn't you do anything as an adult for your parents, we were created in God's image, this could mean more than the physical. Men cross each other, war is a human act, when the Lord supported His people the war was going to happen it was decided from the offensive side that they would rise against God's people. And the Lord was dealing with a different humanity in those days had set up rules the people had misunderstood, the mixing of beliefs with the gentile way was inevitable God knew all this but man was left to create its own little hell on earth so to speak through their own creations, actions and thinking. But when something goes wrong, like the greed that drives the terrorists and governments of the world today causes War we all say how could God let that happen, we do these things to ourselves, God's intervention is there in many lives, everyone that was not there who were supposed to be and there are many God has his own way of doing things and who here is able to tell him if He know what He is doing, He is all knowing, we are not.

Honestly, I don't know why a lot of Christians feel that way. I'm only sorry that those people are the ones who give everyone such a sad impression of what a Christian is.
I am a Christian, and I don't believe that I am the "chosen child" or anything like that. I just have a personal relationship with God, I attend church, and I let Him lead my life. Nothing more, nothing less. I don't judge anyone, I don't believe that everyone is going to hell except for the people in my religion. I just try to share my personal experience with God to anyone who is interested.

All is welcome in the church (the church is simple a group of people meeting together for a common purpose-not a building). No one is excluded. If you decide not to be a christian it is your choice. The bible is available for everyone.
We turn our back on God. God has never turned his back on any of us. We experience things that is brought about by each other and our poor decisions but then we blame God, afterall who else is there to blame.
Christianity means to follow Christ it does not mean you are chosen by God because not everyone that calls themselves christian will go to heaven.
You should really read the bible more and if you have done it, I think you missed alot, so do it again.

Christians are human beings. I'm sorry you seem to have met the ones who feel superior becuase of a label they have assumed.
Jesus chooses everyone. Muslims, Buddists, ect. And of coarse they're all worthy of his love.
There will be no one burning in hell becuase they DIDN'T KNOW.
If you read the Bible instead of listening to hate filled 'christians', you'll find that Jesus isn't arrogant or exclusive, or superior.

God The Father is a Just God. The vast majority of the world does not subscribe to St. Paul's religion. Why would they not be saved. They were caused to be born in a nonChristian home. So, the thesis of the Asker calls for a reaction to his claims.

Boy, aren't you on a high horse there! Who appointed you to make those judgments?! How do you know that YOU aren't the one being misled and deceived? True Christians aren't puffed up with pride like that! There are so many denominations that THINK they're right and everyone else is wrong; I think everyone is going to wake up to a big surprise and find out they were ALL wrong!
Matt. 7: 21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that DOETH the will of my Father which is in heaven.
We are all God's children and He loves each and everyone of us no matter what religion we are. He may not like what we do sometimes, but He wants us to find Him and obey Him. And HE has appointed Jesus Christ to make those judgments, not you!
Matt. 7: 1-2
1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

How can any religion not believe that God has imbued them with the "truth"? The act of the Immaculate Concepcion gives Christians their legitimacy towards the ownership of the "truth". It was during an Easter sermon that I realized that I couldn't call myself a Christian anymore. It wasn't that I couldn't believe in the Immaculate Concepcion, but I couldn't believe in the idea that God in his infinite wisdom would allow "truth" to be seen through only one set of eyes.

Yes, everyone else but Christians will burn for eternity, but not because they didn't have the luck or circumstance of being born to Christian parents. We are all unworthy, and God redeems those He chooses. Those who He does not wouldn't want it anyway, not that we did. God radically changes our nature, forcibly making us believe in Him by His grace. We are awakened to our need by Him and repent, but if He didn't awaken us, we would be right along with everyone shaking our hairy fists in His face.
No one is innocent, no one is without sin, and no one has an excuse.

Jesus Christ was promised by God centuries before His actual birth, its all recorded in the Old testament. And when He arrived after He grew to manhood and was publically baptized to indetify with us. He constantly kept telling even His immediate followers. " I came not to be served but to give my life as a ransom for many." " I am the way, the truth and the life no one comes to the Father, but by me" Mark 10:45, John 14:6 and to back it up He is the only man to leave His grave the way He found it.
