  “I sell luxury housing for everyone, it’s not my fault if some people are poor!”
  My brother in christ, YOU made poor people.

    Difference is luxury houses cost money, Jesus does not

    I recall something in his favourite part of the Bible about rich men, camels, eye of a needle and heaven

    Anyone surviving in a major western nation and not living on the streets in a place with no welfare is well rich in terms of camels and needle eyes

  Again, depends on the dogma. There are faiths which believe that people who are ignorant of the Gospel, of Jesus, do not get into Heaven.

    Within our lifetimes, God reveals Himself to us. It’s the following of the Holy Spirit which leads us to Jesus. However, it’s next to impossible these days for the vast majority of the world’s population to not hear about Jesus. God knows everyone’s hearts. I think this video explains it well. However, basically everyone who has access to the comment I made and this forum has access to the Gospel. It is very much a free offering. It’s also worth realising that missionary work is also important, and there’s a reason why I want people to have another chance to hear about Jesus

  Catholic dogma (which pre-dates whatever you follow) says unbaptised babies aren’t qualified for heaven, and believers have surreptitiously baptised babies and children of non-Christian background

  What good deity punishes people for not reaching an age where they might be baptised? Especially when the dead baby is dead thanks to His ineffable plan

  What good deity punishes people born before their invention for not knowing about them?

  What good deity punishes people for being born in a country where that deity is unpopular

  But I’m sure your version is softened so good people all get heaven.

  Judaism says you have to be of one of the Jewish tribes. And that pre-dates all Christianity.

      Just like everyone else. But also how would you possibly know?

        Because the Bible doesn’t mention water Baptism as being a strict requirement for salvation. Such as the thief on the cross. Catholics also hold other unbiblical beliefs such as purgatory, indulgences, masses for the dead, papal infallibility, etc
