If you're just going to say it's impossible, then really, disbelief is enough to keep you out of heaven.

I don't recall arguing that disbelief isn't enough to keep one out of heaven.

Nor is belief in God's existence sufficient to get one into heaven.

I subscribe to an age of accountability doctrine. IMO you need to consciously sin on your own above that age in order to be damned.

So don't. Doesn't bother me.
