Ok, so I decide to end my life and drink a cup of Poison Hemlock (which takes about 3 hours to work, during which time the peripheral nervous system shuts down and the thoracic muscles responsible for breathing stop working).. during this time, I pray to God to forgive me of the sin of suicide. Do I go to heaven?
What if I am hooked up to an EKG machine that sends a signal to a bomb, to which a beautiful young woman is tied, such that when my heart stops beating, the bomb goes off, killing the woman. Since I admittedly died BEFORE her death, would I still go to heaven?
Since I have just shared this with the world, would God see through my prayers and send me to hell anyway? Would I get my own handbasket?

No, prayer doesn't work, and god, heaven, and hell don't exist.

I can already tell from your tone that your mind is made up.
So...no. If God is really infinite, then he would invalidate any attempts to reach Heaven through mortal loopholes unless you absolved yourself of your sins (don't ask me how...).
As for the handbasket, go ahead and have it. They're all made from China at supercheap prices anyway.

There is not a soul alive who could answer this question although there may be many who think they can. Only God knows the intents of your heart and only He can make the decision based on that knowlege. And He wouldn't send you to hell, He would let you make the decision to send yourself there. He would only be letting you go not sending you.

you can go to heaven as long as you accept Jesus Christ as your saviour, and in conjunction really repent for your wrongdoings. God's not an idiot, even people can tell a sarcastic/fake apology from a genuine one.
p.s u know sometimes, you think u won't feel remorse, but you do. so as long as u did accept Jesus into your life, and really repented u can go to heaven. God can forgive anything unlikes you and i. Also he knows a genuine apology from a fake. Don't give God a human characteristic, and capacity.

It's hell for you if you commit the sin of taking a beautiful young woman life away from me.

Your soul doesn't leave you when you die. God knows the intent of the Heart. Last Minute Repentance is not acceptable in GOd's eyes. True repentance comes when you feel guilt and sorrow and you want to do better when you aren't forced or compelled to do so.

Heaven is where God is. All your examples are where man is, earth. Read the Gospel of John to see how to worship God.

Any one commits suicide , goes to hell.
You are planning to pray to Allah (God) after your plan to commit a sin, so it is premeditated sin and asking forgiveness as per your plan will not fool Allah (God).

haha .... or there could be no heaven at all and your hypothetical questions were all pointless... and you wasted part of your precious life since there could be no after life so stop worrying about the end and deal with the present!!
