Catholic dogma (which pre-dates whatever you follow) says unbaptised babies aren’t qualified for heaven, and believers have surreptitiously baptised babies and children of non-Christian background. What good deity punishes or rewards someone for the actions of others?
What good deity punishes people for not reaching an age where they might be baptised? Especially when the dead baby is dead thanks to His ineffable plan
What good deity punishes people born before their invention for not knowing about them?
What good deity punishes people for being born in a country where that deity is unpopular
But I’m sure your version is softened so good people all get heaven.
Judaism says you have to be of one of the Jewish tribes. And that pre-dates all Christianity.
Because the Bible doesn’t mention water Baptism as being a strict requirement for salvation. Such as the thief on the cross. Catholics also hold other unbiblical beliefs such as purgatory, indulgences, masses for the dead, papal infallibility, etc

Good thing the Catholics are wrong, then
Just like everyone else. But also how would you possibly know?
