I've always thought that this question was the most damaging aspect against God: that he dosn't make himself heard. Only an evil entity would design a system where people could only avoid the torture of hell if they follow the odd/contradicting/confusing/metaphoric/strange writings from people 2,000 years ago!
Ditto.
Consider.
Are most ideologies not built on the carrot stick type of ideology/theology/secular law?
In our hierarchical world dualistic universe, I see this as normal and desirable.
Mitigating the harm our carrot and stick ideologies poorly is why we have been gifted with 5,000 years of war history from our vile religions.
We are getting better quickly though as modernization kills the gids.
