Christ says to those who did not do unto others as you would do unto me, the real difference here is that the goats do not believe in Christ, so they could not have treated others as they would Christ. They are judged for their unbelief and their actions show their unbelief.

Obviously you just don't understand the story or are being obtuse. I suspect both. There's nothing in the story which says that one group (goats) don't believe in Jesus. It's all about treating your fellow humans as you would Jesus. If you treat your fellow people well, then you treat Jesus well and get into Heaven. Treat people poorly and you treat Jesus poorly, and are cast into Hell. So therefore, both good works and faith are necessary to get to Heaven, according to Christian mythology.

Sorry, but your blinders are hindering you ability to see the truth.
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.
