I know. Hence the word "heretical."

What? I trust Him to be merciful, full stop. How He will sort it out, I don't know.
Well, it's just that, earlier, you did seem to know how God would sort it all out...

I can't believe that afterward He would have said, "Sorry, you died in My Name rather than worship Caesar, but you didn't have the proper doctrine of the Trinity nailed down in your head, so off to Hell you go...")
At a minimum, you seem to be saying that you know he will not condemn the people in question.
