| Re: Athiest in Heaven?
I believe that if there is a heaven, it's the actions you take over the course of your life that dictate whether you get in or not. I don't think that you have to label yourself one way or another to gain admission.
If the words of the New Testament are 100% truthful, the quote listed above ("I am the way, the truth and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”) does not necessarily mean a person needs to call themselves a "christian" to gain admission to heaven. This is because you can follow the teachings of Christ without labeling yourself a christian.
Jesus's teachings were about living a life full of love, caring, forgiveness, and so on. Everybody can live such a life, whether they be Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Atheist, Agnostic, or any other religion. Love and thoughtfulness are not attributes that are exclusive to christians.
My belief is that if we are judged by God, he will take into account our actions more than the label (Christian, Jewish, etc.) we chose.
