And just from an efficiency standpoint those books never talk about our current population of 7 billion humans. Back then even real scientists outside of religion had a huge problem once the numbers got past a certain level. Numbers in religious texts were used to over conflate a story or idea.
But if we are to pretend God wants us all in heaven, why would a God want or need 7 billion friends. I can count my friends on one hand, and that is all I need. If by their standards not all of us get in to heaven, then why put humans who wont get in through that torture? Why not make the few instead of making all that waste?
And what about stillborns do they go to heaven as babies? If they do, what kind of logic would a baby's mind have to comprehend either the concept of heaven or hell? And all three religions contradict themselves in the books about who gets in and why, liberals and moderates will say everyone has that opportunity(many even then, still say IF YOU PICK MY CLUB", THEN you have other stories in those books that say "No, outsiders don't get in even if they are good".... Then you have the extreme right that use other stories in the same books to say Kill em all if they don't comply".
Now this also is why both left and right of all three of these religions ignore. If god was real and perfect like they falsely believe, if that were the case, why if you can "poof" all this into existence in the blink of an eye, would you go out of you way to use fallible humans to write competing versions only to have them fight over what the right way to interpret those versions? Again, that doesn't strike me as efficient, it looks more like an episode of Jerry Springer or fake pro wrestling. Needless drama.
