Isn't it funny...

[Succubus]

" … that every person instinctively begs God for help when death appears imminent, whether they previously learned to do this or not?"

Lies.

I've sat with many people as they've died.  Those not inclined to do not call out to any gods.  And the non religious people tend to be more calm, in general, than the religious ones.

Are these the words of a man about to ask god to forgive him?

Well there's an old saying- "There are no atheists in foxholes"..
And a stretcher-bearer in WW1 told how when they went out to collect bodies from no mans land, they found that many wounded soldiers had crawled into shell craters and had died there clutching their bibles..
