funny. but your answer and reactions to some other comments here are the same. Jews dont "send" non-jews to "hell". however, we have serious obligations for ourselves. it is adherence to those obligations which is followed by the ability to ascend to great heights of closeness to G-d. non-Jews have it easy to go to "heaven", you have 7 commandments. we have quite a few more.

Expanding on that, The Lord holds those who are "more pious" to even higher standards: Remember that Moses was not allowed into the Promised Land, because he didn't follow The Lords instructions properly.

The greater the faith, the greater the obligation.
