I have always heard the Christians (who mostly came from European countries) were the only ones who believe in Christ, therefore they are the only ones who will make it to heaven. Most of the Caucasians get in.
The Jews rejected Jesus as the Messiah. And since they don't believe he was either (1) the messiah, and/or (2) part of the Trinity, then they will mostly burn in Hell.
Muslims will also burn in Hell.
Asians, same deal.
Africans too.
Native Americans, no luck.
But I suppose the fact that I am of white European descent means that I am fortunate to have been born a Christian, right? That gives me a warm feeling inside to know that God must love us more.

Do you agree or not?
First of all, no one is born a Christian. A Christian is someone who has personally believed that Jesus died for their sins and rose again and therefore has trusted in Him alone for eternal life. Secondly, there are people of all races and nationalities who have believed on Christ and are therefore saved. And that includes many thousands of Jews who have believed on Christ.

Historically, It is and has been a WHITE religion--at the very least a religion of racial privilege. Used so many times to keep the savages in line and justify OPPRESSION.

nope. where there is white people they praise white people. where there is black people they praise black people.
Also what religion are most black people in America? so they are in. In fact by percentages, they may get more in the gates.

That's a slightly negative way of looking at it. I see is as more of having to deal with "trials" in this life. But the reward is that the suffering we endure now will produce a new character that will enrich our souls. Then we will be rewarded after we die by being around more people who share our values and character because we have pleased God. And God wishes to make us happy as a reward.
But in reality it's not just for one race. I have SO many friends who are Latino and even other different cultures who attend my church. They are understanding the ways of God by being around us. They dress and act the same, they don't try to be different or make a statement about being different. They work in the same type of jobs and try to get along in a loving way. Their children play with our children. You don't even notice things like skin color at our church because everyone seems the same. One body and one spirit.

So the Muslims, Hindu, Jews, etc, that do not believe in Christ or ever had the opportunity to learn about him are condemned?
^ No. God is so far above our limited interpretations of life.
