I never understood why someone would think faith being more important than works would be preferable. I think there is a verse where Jesus says works are important, but faith is still more importance. That's why people try to convert others on death row, or on their death beds.
I would expect a just god to judge someone on how they lived their life, rather than who they sucked up to. Let's say you worship Zeus, but you're a great guy who does everything he can to better himself and the world around him. Why would a benevolent deity declare those good works filthy rage, and sentence the guy to hell because he said the wrong name during prayers?
