The only question I have is why the author didn't throw in his "insert joke here" line right after pointing that out?

believing God doesn't let non-christians into heaven is a complete non-sequetor of God killed them on purpose with a tsunami out of vengeance.
As has been pointed out to you repeatedly, you are defining Christianity by a stereotype that, while certainly exists in some denominations, is anything but universal or true for a huge majority of christians.
Just like Muslims are not all suicide bombers, or all mormons polygamist pedophiles, not all Christians are Pat Robertson-esque idiots.
