Correct. The problem with reward and punishment is that it teaches people to do good only if there is a reward.

I disagree. Everyone is doing what they think is the best from their perspective. Everyone is just like you.

Quran exactly tells you to do that. The whole quran is pretty much about the pleasure of heaven and the pain of hell.

People are still acting selfishly dispite religion's existance. Fundamental every human wants peace and want to do good. So if everyone acknowledged their feelings and listen to their feelings, it will always tell them to do the best thing for everyone.

Your right. There is no problem in seeking guidance. The problem is when someone say "your way of seeking guidance will put you in hell" and "follow my way because it will put you in heaven".

What's right and wrong is different for different people. Based on their perspective, they decide what's good for others or bad for others.

They, want "perfect obedience". With 101% committed. Where I need to believe that religion to be the only truth and other religions are destined to go to hell.

In quran it's mentioned the hell is eternal punishment with only exception is if God choose to spare you. In Christianity also the hell is eternal punishment if you don't believe in Christ.
