There are so many religions in the world and everyone says they are the righteous one because they belong to these religion. Who is the true God and who is not? Did we pick right one? Or we belong to these religion because this is where our family belong?

Not every religion in this world believe in the existence of God, provide insightful view in the kingdom of God's heaven. Only a few main stream world religions preach the existence of heaven or hell as a matter of fact. Yes, my religion always try to help me in going to heaven through a righteous teaching.

actually, when God made Adam and Eve, He put them live in the Garden of Eden,
and this Garden of Eden is found in Mesopotamia (now known as Iraq)
therefore, God has no plan to make Adam and Eve live in heaven
and also God has no plan for us to live in heaven...
as God's plan is for us to cultivate earth only...
Heaven is the place for angels and God's itself,
and not for any human souls or spirits... no exceptions...

My religion does not give me a passport to heaven because there is no heaven in my religion. On the other hand there is no hell or any god to transgress against so there is no sin to br redeemed from.
For me there is no god so there is no right god. Is my religion the right one? It is for me.

I do not believe that there is any one true religion or spiritual belief. For the most part, people do take the religion of their parents. I am not sure how many people actually pick their religion. If one is not educated on more than one religion, then are they actually picking their religion? Or are they just being indoctrinated?
I am not religious and I do not believe in heaven. To me, "heaven" is inner-peace. One does not need any religion to achieve inner-peace. No external factor can give us this. If we want peace inside, then we must search inside. And external peace will follow. Namaste.
