There are plenty of $religionA's which say non-beleivers will go to hell,
and by extension, since the requirements of $religionB are mutually

hell.
I don;t know of any $religionA which says that all people who do not
follow $rleigionB (even if they'e agnostics, atheists, whatever) will go
to heaven.

All the religions that I've come across
require oyu to beleive in that
religious system to get to their idea of heaven. As an agnostic, I don't
meet any such criteria. So if there is a hereafter, I am going to end up
in hades...
How about this:
* To get into heaven, you need to believe in $religionA or $religionB.
* Everyone who doesn't believe in $religionA will go to Hell.
* Equally, everyone who doesn't believe in $religionB will go to Hell.
* You can't believe in both religions, because their requirements are in
mutual conflicting.
* Union of "people who don't follow religionA" and "people who
don't
follow religionB" = everyone.
* Thus everyone is going to hell.
* Now flip the argument around so that everyone goes to heaven... Now
you have an impossibility:
