Catholics do not believe that non-Christians go to heaven. Best case scenario, righteous unbelievers go to purgatory. Same with unbaptised babies.
Also, I grew up going to baptist and pentecostal churches. They 1000% do not think my atheist ass is getting into heaven no matter how righteous I am, even though I got baptized for that matter. Unless I repent at the 11th hour and "accept Jesus into my heart as my savior," anyway. There are certainly plenty denominations that are not all about preaching "hellfire for the unbeliever", but even plenty of those still believe that is true even if they're not boasting about it. There are some that allow for people to be saved through ignorance of Jesus (which makes missionary work kind of fucked up when you think about it that way). But even that is not the norm.
Jesus' sacrifice saving humanity from eternal damnation is a key tenet of nearly all denominations. And most of them also say that you need to actually accept it and turn your life over to him to qualify for the get out of Hell free card.

Purgatory is a step that leads to heaven, not a final destination. It's a step that a lot of Catholics will have to take too, according to the catholic church so it's not something that separates believers and non-believers.
Baptism and Pentecostalism are categories of evangelicalism. So yeah, they believe that. But they're a minority within Christianity.
Yes.
No. Only in evangelicalism.
Well, consider me brainwashed by evangelicals then. Non-evangelicals really need to step up their PR game.
Yeah, that's what cults do. I'm very sorry, and happy for you you found a way out. It's better to be an atheist than jailed in a cult, and I know God will understand.
False, not only in evangelicalism. The words of Jesus Christ disagree with you. Do you need me to quote the "Narrow Gate" to you? You should be very familiar with it if you've read the Bible.
