If god exists, and hell exists, then god is completely unreasonable expecting everyone to believe in a savior that there's zero evidence for. Imagine for a moment if you will the Christianity is not true, and that instead we are all judged by whether or not we believe in Shiva. It doesn't matter what else you do in your life, no matter how good of a person you are, you go to Naraka. Does Shiva sound reasonable with this expectation? You can bring up personal revelation all the time, but if personal revelation was true (and many believe it's true for their religion too) then you'd find groups of people who never encountered civilization with a belief in Jesus.
You believe what you do because you do not know God. Yes some children are talked into believing I've seen it happen, they are the ones who usually leave Christianity. I know plenty of children that have chosen Christ and have been in a very good relationship with God. If there where plenty of evidence for Christ, enough to convince you then where would the choice be, it wouldn't. You as many others would jump on the salvation train wanting you ticket punched for heaven, but where would be the love, the love for God instead of the selfish desire just to be in heaven. You see it's more than having evidence about Christ, it's about the love of Christ and what He did for you. So you and the others that insist on evidence (proof) will never get it until you have chosen the unseen Savior and that's when He will reveal himself to you with the evidence you were seeking.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
