There are so many things I could say about this, but perhaps I won't bother... I'll ask something else instead.
Do you try to be a nice person just so that you can get into heaven? Or, put another way, would you be a selfish/exploitative person if you thought your god didn't exist? Or do you think everyone needs a god to be morally accountable and responsible?
I know they're all pretty much the same question...

No, I don't think you have to be a Christian to be a good, honest or moral person. And I don't believe in Salvation based on works.
