How do you know he didn’t repent? Maybe he accepted Christ before he died.

I have never spoke here about this before. My grandfather was an atheist. He lived til the age of 100 and on his deathbed, the day of his passing, he found Christ.

You don't really know what Hitchens had in his heart at the end. But that does not matter. Your comment stinks anyway. Classless.

CS Lewis said that he felt that atheists maybe closer to God than many others who never take a position either way. Atheists at least adhere to reason and reason is a step in God’s direction.

Maybe, like Ivan Ilych, he turned to the Lord in the last days or hours.

If he found the Lord on his deathbed as a lot of people do, he's not going to Hell either.

Are you the one who gets to decide, or is it somebody else?

Get lost.

Neither do those who take a simplistic, comic book view of God. Believe it or not, being a white trash,literalist, non-reflective attender of a megachurch doesn’t get you into heaven either.

I know its easy to be simplistic and stupid, but its not getting you to paradise. Sorry.

Exactly. That’s the cold, hard fact.
