Okay, I'm willing to concede that if God, Christianity, and all it entails is false, then to use your words, "all will be well." It won't matter to the agnostic, atheist, moral relativist, or anyone of a different lifestyle/faith, because there will be no devine judgement or afterlife.
On the other hand, if you are wrong, then all will not be well. If the following words of Christ prove to be true, then all will not be well with those who reject Christ as the son of God and path to salvation.
"I am the way, the truth and the life. No man cometh unto the Father, but by me."
"He that hath the Son hath life. He that hath not the Son hath not life, but the wrath of God abideth upon him."
