I think a lot of these questions require more than a true or false answer. They are good questions though.

1) God loves everyone?
...I think this is false because God says in the Bible that He hates some, for example Essau. I think God would like to love everyone and perhaps has loved everyone at some point in their lives. However, God can see the beginning from the end, He knows who will accept Him and who will reject Him and embrace evil. If God can see that an individual is going to always embrace evil and reject God no matter how many opportunities that individual is give to come to God it's no wonder that He would hate some people with a perfect and just type of hatred. I'm not sure we have the capacity to completely understand how God can "be love" and at the same time can hate some people, but He says He does in His Word.

2) Jesus is God?
... True, God in fleshly form, a part of the Trinity.

3) Pets can go to Heaven? ... I am not sure. I hope if they do God's provided us a way to feed them all

4) Pets can go to Hell?
... Again I am not sure, but I vaguely remember a verse refering to some animals being evil and we know the serpent was cursed for cooperating with satan.

5) We are born without sin?
... False, We are all born with the sin nature of the flesh, inherited from Adam.

6) Mormons are Christians?
... False, they believe Jesus and satan were brothers, that Jesus was created etc. Our God has ONE begotten son, Jesus Christ, who is God in the flesh, and has existed from the beginning, He was not created.

7) Muslims who refuse Christ can go to Heaven?
... False. John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

8) Jews who refuse Christ can go to Heaven?
... False. John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

9) Practising homosexuals can go to Heaven?
... False
Romans 1:26-32 explains that their lifestyle is wrong/sin in the eyes of God. Further more Romans 8:5-9 explains that if you are Christ's you will not be practicing sin.
Romans 8:5-9
[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]5 Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. 6 The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace; 7 the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so. 8 Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God. 9 You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ.[/FONT]
10) We are no longer under the law of the Old Testament?
... True we are no longer under "the law", which does not mean that we are able to sin as much as we want. God's commands and what is pleasing to Him are still very much important and sin is still sin. We need a savior, there is only one, Jesus Christ.

11) There is a Hell?
... Yes

12) Christians can pray to Saints?
... No. The first commandment:
“I Am the Lord, your God. You shall have no other gods before Me. You shall not make for yourself a graven image or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above or that is on the earth below, or that is in the water under the earth.”

13) Christians need to take communion?
Yes, Christ told us to do so and I believe it is an outward symbol of our inward faith. However, I don't think it is a requirement for being saved.... for example if you got saved on Wednesday and died before having a chance to ever take communion you'd still go to heaven.

14) Christians need to go to church?
Yes and No. What is church? To me a church could be a small group of believers meeting in someones home any day of the week or it could be a group of thousands meeting in a huge sanctuary on Sundays. Both groups should be meeting to worship, pray, study God's word and fellowship together. They should support and uplift each other and correct each other, acting as a family in Christ. They learn not only for their own sake, but for the sake of spreading the gospel.

15) The pope speaks to God?
True, everyone can speak to God

16) God speaks to the pope?
I think everyone who seeks God recieves answers of one kind or another.

17) Mary was a virgin (when pregnant with Jesus)? True

18) Jesus, on the cross, asked why His Father had forsaken Him?
True. I believe this is when the increasing burden of our punishment was getting more severe. We know He was not "forsaken" in the way we might think of it in our human terms because of many other scriptures and His own last words[FONT=Arial, Times New Roman]

Luke 23:43-46
43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.
[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica] 44 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth F52 until the ninth hour. 45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica] 46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost. [/FONT]

19) The Bible was written by God? True, the God inspired word means it was written through man by God.

20) The Bible is infallable? True. There are no mistakes or contradictions. Every one non-believers have said they can find has been thoroughly disproven and arise from ingnorance of the scripture itself or the meaning of it.
