Just as you like eating rice pudding and watching nature documentaries he likes disembowelling prostitutes. it doesn't upset him in the least. He likes it. And he's about to die. He's go nothing to lose.
Now, does he have any reason not to disembowel a prostitute?
Then him believing in a sky daddy isn't going to stop him from disembowelling a prostitute.
Why do you think it would? Jesus forgives all sins if you are truly repentant.
If Hitler himself (yeah, I went there) asked Jesus to forgive him of his sins before he bit down on that Cyanide capsule while simultaniously putting a bullet through his head while the Soviets overran Berlin, he'd go to Heaven.
So where is the big motivator to not do evil?
Christianity gives you a free pass. You can consider yourself to be "good" even while doing truly horrific things.
Atheists don't have that pass.
