Christ Himself

“He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.” John 3:36( this excludes Atheists good or bad)

and further

““Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven” Mathew 7:21( this excludes bad Christians)

So SSPX you are saying that a person who..

[b]“(...) but [b]he who does the will of My Father in heaven[/b]” [/b] will be "saved"..

so in theory.. if an atheist who coincidentally never heard about the ten commandments (aka Will of Father),
but obey them non the less without knowing or realizing just by being good person ..
then he is a bad person and he deserves nothing but eternal damnation?

How exactly this sits with you: God is the Father who is all loving and all forgiving..  
yet.. he would not forgive a good person? Key word forgiving.. for not knowing God?[/quote]

Yep-- it looks like the good atheist goes to hell, because he cannot fulfill the first 4 commandments, which are not common sense about being a good person, but are about paying due respect to the god that they never heard of:

1. You shall have no other gods.
2. You shall not make idols.
3. You shall not misuse the name of the Lord.
4. Remember the Sabbath, keep it holy.[/quote]
