RE: Atheists: What would you say to a dying child who asks you if they'll go to heaven?

And what if a dying kid had something to say to you?
If you were in this situation facing a dying kid telling the truth may still be the best option because it's hard for smart people to correlate themselves in the failed logic of god and afterlife even if they are dying kids

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
