Sure.
So, wouldn't the most moral thing a Christian could do is to not procreate?
For every child a Christian has that lives to adulthood, the greater chance that person will loose his/her faith. Why would a moral Christian want to take a chance that their children will end up in hell for eternity?
Why wasn't Andrea Yates a hero for ending her children's lives before they had the possibility of ending up in hell? According to her Christian beliefs (and yours) the children are now in heaven. She sacrificed her eternity for the sake of her children's.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
