God only cares that you do what he says

Q: How to reconcile multiple religions with different requirements for entry to heaven (or the equivalent) with their only being one god?

A: God does not care what you do so long as you do what she says.  Ever have a girlfriend want to pick a different restaurant or movie just to see whether you love her enough to make the sacrifice?  That's god for you.  She doesn't need a sacrificial goat but enjoys the ego gratification.  

No, I don't really believe this, because I find it very unlikely that there is a conscious god, but this silly rationalization popped into my head as I awoke this morning and make me chuckle.  Hope it did the same for you.
