That is a very key quote right there. You see Christianity is the only religion where you do not have to raise yourself up. Where you don't have to do something in order to "obtain a status to get into heaven". With all other religions there is some sort of way to raise yourself up, and earn your way into heaven. In Catholicism you have to go through comunion and become Baptized at a young age. Their are other things you have to do in order to become a certain "status" so that someday you can go to heaven. They also believe in purgatory (I might add again you will never see the word "purgatory" anywhere in the bible) for people who aren't fully clean.

Christianity you don't have to earn your way to heaven and you don't have to do a set of good deeds to get there. In order to "get into heaven" you have to ask Christ to come into your heart and acknowledge that Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins and that he is our savior.

I think most people can agree that it makes much more sense for us to believe in a Holy God whom is fully divine without any "extras" to go along with it. Rather than believing in a dead God that we have to worship and do certain things so that one day we can be deemed "worthy" in his eyes (which are dead) so that we can go to heaven.
