A common enough view of the Christian God is that he does precisely this as part of an overall plan in which folk are given the opportunity to decide whether they want to spend eternity with God and what he represents or whether they don't.
Except that they are really not offered that choice. Hundreds of millions of people have never heard of god/Jesus.
Just a couple of thousands of years ago, NO one knew about god/Jesus. They had no way of choosing simply because they did not know. Did god send these people to hell?
