So... the vast majority of mankind is in hell because they picked the wrong religion, which shows that God is neither benevolent nor merciful and thus not worthy of worship. Or it doesn't matter.

God's love, benevolence, and mercy is manifested by exposing falsehoods that have nothing to do with the Bible, such as the Trinity Doctrine. God is truly worthy of mankind's love and worship according to Revelation 4:11 which says: "YOU are worthy (not WE are worthy as in the case of the Trinity Doctrine), Jehovah our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power, because YOU (not WE), created all things, and because of YOUR will (not OUR will) they came into existence and were created." Why didn't this verse say or include a reference to the Trinity?

@Typhoidjerry, forgive me but I had to chuckle when you said: "....the vast majority of mankind is in hell because they picked the wrong religion...." No that is not the case. Jehovah doesn't punish people by consigning them to a fiery tormental hell who unknowingly died believing that the Trinity Doctrine is true and whose religion believed or practiced this false teaching.
I have learned that the vast majority of dead mankind is in "hell" a peaceful resting place, where no activity exists (Ecclesiastes 9:5,6 and verse 10). Sheol is the Hebrew word for hell, and Hades is the Greek word for hell. According to the Bible, hell is not a firery place of torment for the wicked to be tormented forever. Good and bad people go to hell which is mankind's common grave.
Think about this too: In the Bible, everlasting life is only promised to the "faithful". If the wicked live forever, even under tortuous conditions, then the whole Bible becomes invalid.
