Again, it doesn't matter much what you believe. If there is a creator, it matters supremely what He created.
Matthew 7
13 Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. 14 For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
John 14
5 Thomas *said to Him, Lord, we do not know where You are going, how do we know the way? 6 Jesus *said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.
If He is not the creator, this is nonsense. If you say this is nonsense, you are rejecting Him as creator.
If He is creator, you are dead wrong for rejecting Him.
If there is no creator, there is no hope for any of us.
If somebody other than the God of Abraham and Jesus Christ is creator, then Christians are dead wrong for rejecting that god.
We all choose one of those choices.
What doesn't make sense is to pretend to reject all those choices and pretend that all religions lead to heaven, when they all claim their way is the only viable way to heaven. Why would God accept Hindus into heaven, after Jesus said what He said in John 14? Why would the Hindu religion accept Christians into its heaven, when Christians have not followed the Hindu teachings concerning how to reach heaven? What kind of a God would that be, who doesn't really mean what He says?
Unfortunately, you have to choose, and you do choose, whether you admit that you do or not.
