You are avoiding the point on this one. You specifically said that Christianity only comprised a fraction of a percent of people. I merely refuted that with documentation.
Further, your statement of the fate of those who lived before Christ shows a lack of understanding of the Christian faith, which is based upon Judaism. Traditional Christian belief is that prior to the coming of Christ, people were responsible to meet the requirements of that religion.
Additionally, I have made no statements as to what I believe to be the fate of anyone. I do not claim to be God, nor do I pretend to have any control over the eternal fate of anyone. I said a fraction of a percent of the people that have ever lived, not that are currently living. I am inlcuding all of our line, not just the people that have been living in the Last few 1000 years.
Very few people were followers of Judaism, so that doesn't really change a whole lot.
I never said you made statements as to people's fate. But Hell is the fate for non-Christians according to Christianity (after the alleged coming of Christ).
