27. I'm not sure if you can really bring atheists and agnostics into this
You're talking about being 'saved' - whether the final judgement on you that Christians expect will regard you as 'good'. Since atheists (and agnostics too, I'd say, since it seems a fairly definite thing to expect) don't think this will actually happen, we don't really have much interest in a hypothetical situation. I suspect you're referring to the "Christians saying other Christians aren't real Christians" thread - which is not a matter of whether people are/will be 'saved', it's about moving the definition of 'Christian' on from "believes Jesus was divine" to "behaves in a way consistent with my reading of the gospels".
