Outright rejection of a viewpoint is a bias that is hard to overcome in a debate, something I know from experience the few times I have attempted to debate someone whose views were so skewed that I could not accept them.

As for your question, that would depend entirely on which Christian you asked. I know of quite a few Christians with a liberal viewpoint that would have no serious problem with that premise. If you do not believe me, just go look at those who want to point out all the similarities between all the worlds religions. The ones who would tell you that just because Jesus said that no one comes to the Father except through him, that does not mean that people who believe in Muhhommad will not get to heaven. After all, they worship the same God.
Ok, so my assumption was wrong. That's good. I explained the reason why I don't chose to call myself agnostic even though I don't deny the supernatural. The definitions of atheist and agnostic goes a lot deeper than that and they're both huge families of various faiths. And they also float in and out of each other. Just like there's huge families of various Christian faiths and their view on the super-natural apparently.
