It is really much simpler than that.

Cristianity requires a person to believe a certain way or they burn in hell for eternity.

This fear makes Christians intolerant of other belief systems (bigotry).

It is not that Christians cannot understand other belief systems; They do not want to.

It defies logic for anyone to think in their mind, that all religions are of equal value or please God in any way. The reason is, that all religions contradict each other in major, significant ways. They cannot all be true. And God owes no one, to allow for any weird or false religious buffet to satisfy his requirements for eternal fellowship. Any one who believes otherwise is only fooling themselves.

Christianity requires that you accept the reign of Jesus in your life. If you reject that reign, you will go to the place where He does not reign. It will be your choice.

I'm just curious why you would make that choice? What has that place got that Heaven hasn't got?

Shalom.

Actually, I find Christians are better informed about other faiths than any single group that I have been exposed to (including atheists, agnostics, Catholics, New Agers, etc). Because of Christianity's evangelistic focus, knowing how to advocate for your faith often means understanding the faith of those you evangelize.
