like that I was confused by so many two-faced Christians and ended up not knowing what to do?

We're all sinners. Christians are sinners too. That's why Jesus died on the cross for us. So you can die a sinner. You just have to believe in God in order to be saved. I'm sorry that you have a bad view of Christians. But know that a true christian isn't two-faced.

Why wait till you die? Whatever you want to say to God, say it now. He's listening.
Two faced Christians will have to answer for themselves. If your confused about what to do, God gave you His word. It's not the exclusive property of Christians. It is available to anyone.

God already knows that. You will not have to explain it. You will have the chance to reincarnate back into the physical plane (Earth) and give it another go to learn the lessons and come to the proper understanding before ascending back to the kingdom of Heaven. You will have as many chances as you need to get it right.

I don't see why not. In fact, I think whether you repent or not before you die, you'll get a chance for explanation after you die. I believe that if there is a God, then even atheists will get their chance to explain themselves.
Besides, if there is a God, and he is supposedly "all-knowing", then you don't even need to repent....because he already knows you are sorry.

Although I am almost nowhere near the planet called Christian and I am constantly in disagreement with the church, I do believe that God is merciful and understanding. As rapped by Kanye West in "Jesus Walks," if Jesus walks for "hustlas, killers, murderers, drug dealers even the strippers" surely Jesus walks for you too. I don't think that God would force you to defend yourself against his judgment because our God is reputed to be understanding and merciful (I think it states that in the Bible somewhere). Also, he is supposedly "all-knowing." In other words, he is to know everything about you, what you do, and your reasons for what you do. Why, then, would he have you explain yourself to him?
Completely random but if we don't know what God's gender is, why do we label him as a male? What if he's a she?

If you have read your bible and understand it, you would know that Jesus died for your sins. The only unforgiveable sin is to deny God to his face. Then you are faced with what is known as the 2nd death. No one here on earth can judge you or your sins, only God can do that. So pray to him, and try to learn his words, and you'll be ok. He won't condemn you for that of which you do not know or understand.

The Right to Enter Paradise
Death is inevitable. The thief on the cross knew when his would occur, but we can not predict our own. After his death, the crucified criminal went to live in paradise with Jesus. Some of us will also live eternally in God's presence. But others will experience everlasting torment, forever separated from Him.
If we receive Jesus as our Savior, our penalty for sin is paid. We are adopted into God's family, and Heaven is our eternal home. If we reject Jesus, we remain alienated from the Lord and under condemnation for our sin. We are destined to experience eternal judgment. God won't accept any of man's excuses because there is no acceptable defense for unbelief. (Acts 4:12)
Become part of God's family today. Acknowledge your sinfulness, and express your faith in these words:
"God, I have sinned against You. (Romans 3:23) I've followed my own way and refused to give You the right to rule in my life. (Romans 3:10-12) I recognize I am separated from You and cannot rescue myself. I do believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son. I accept the truth of the Scriptures? that His death on the cross paid my sin-debt in full. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) And I ask You to forgive me of my sins. (1 John 1:9) By faith, I receive You, Lord Jesus, as my personal Savior from this moment on."
If you just spoke those words to God, then, like the thief on the cross, you have received salvation? a gift of God's grace. The heavenly Father welcomes every person who comes to Him through His Son, regardless of background, age, or current situation. Through Jesus, the right to enter paradise is yours!

Not to worry. God does not exist, and there is nothing which you need to mitigate.
