God and salvation is offered to all who will accept. All we have to do is follow the plan of salvation, see Acts 2:38-9.

Most members of my religion believe that there is no need for "salvation" in the Christian sense. All are beloved of the Gods, Whose love is poured forth upon the Earth to nourish and sustain everyone, regardless of their religion (or lack thereof). For that reason, Wiccans don't generally prosyletize. There's simply no reason for it.
Some Wiccans are polytheists (many distinct Gods and Goddesses), some are duotheists (all Gods and Goddesses are aspects of one ultimate God and Goddess), and others are monotheists (God and Goddess are aspects of a single unknowable Source).

No, but salvation isn't "offered" because we don't need it. There is nothing to be saved from.
The gods are exclusivly for anyone, but no, not everyone hears them.
Asatru and no, not one creator. The Universe created the gods, not the other way around.

my religion does not believe salvation is necessary. we were created or evolved to be human beings - with all the good and bad and inbetween that brings - and when this life ends, we move into the next realm of existence.
my religion believes each of us is free to choose the gods and goddesses we worship. we each are responsible for our own lives and our own contributions. no salvation is needed - there is nothing to be saved from.

I'm an atheist, so no salvation, no need to be saved either.
