: Isn't the whole reason why people be 'good' is to get into 'heaven?' What then is the point of being 'good' if you can't get to 'heaven?'
: Is it just me or is there no sense in that? What is the whole point in being 'good' if 'heaven' is only for those who follow one religion. Isn't that just a bit prejudiced?

Not any more so than stating another's religous beliefs make no sense.

McSpotlight: The problem here lies in the usage of the word "sense"; the original poster is using "sense" as a synonym of "logic"; that in saying something "does not make sense" he is trying to say "it is illogical". Which it is; religion is fundamentally illogical, as it cannot be justified by any axiom derived from first principles.
