No, but he might. After all, all the other religions will be going the same place as the atheists.
Never let the best be the enemy of the good.
We are obviously smarter than the religious guy. Arrogant certainty is deadly.

No they won't. Nor will atheists necessarily. I was just being facetious.

This is an illogical argument. Atheism is the natural state of all people, i have never heard of a child being born a believer. All religions are the invention of humanity and then thought to children. As Richard Dawkins states there are no christian children, just children of christian parents. So going for all religions.

I don't think that's even slightly true. Atheism may be the philosophical null hypothesis, but that doesn't make it the natural state of anybody. Indeed, the atheist, of all people, taking religion to be false, must accept that being religious is the natural state of people, since, let's face it, there clearly isn't an external agency imposing it!

"religion is the opium of the masses"
"we are all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the stars"
" In the time of the ancestors, a man was born to a virgin mother with no biological father being involved.
The same fatherless mancalled out to a friend called Lazarus, who had been dead long enough to stink, and Lazarus promptly came back to life.
The fatherless man himself came alive after being dead and buried three days.
Forty days later, the fatherless man went up to the top of a hill and then dissapeared bodily into the sky.
If you murmer thoughts privately in your head, the fatherless man, and his "father"(who is also himself) will hear your thoughts and may act upon them. Heis simultaneousley able to hear the thoughts of everyone else in the world.
If you do something bad, or something good, the same fatherless man sees all,even if nobody else does. You may be rewarded or punished accordingly,including after your death.
The fatherless man's mother never died but was 'assumed' bodily into heaven.
Bread and wine, if blessed by a priest (who must have testicles), 'become' the body and blood of the fatherless man".
All above by Richard Dawkins. The God Delusion.
But if you believe all that how can you say there are no fairies at the end of my garden.
