I'm not wrong. What's more likely - that there is a heaven where good people go who follow the rules of a book which was sent down from god, or that there is no heaven and god favours no-one. Bear in mind, like I said, that there is no evidence for a heaven, in fact all the evidence points to there not being a heaven, and in any case there is absolutely no reason at all for humans to believe that there is a heaven. Since all religions rely on the same 'logic' (or lack of, as it happens) then if one is true then they all are.
If you're wrong, which you are of course, then you've wasted the only true freedom you have, that is to work things out for yourself. Following 2000 year old dogma is not working things out for yourself.
If you want to be a good person then you can be one without having to conform to external ideologies. Be a man and be a good person because you want to be, not because some 2000 year old corpse wants you to be.
