I'm Greek Orthodox, and my opinion on this is that if he is truly going to do what he is saying, then by all means it is good. But the catholic church has a habit of alternate agendas, I partially think they are just trying to please everyone, because they are kinda going against what their faith says.
Regarding the good people go to hell if they don't believe issue, here is my opinion on that: If you've never heard of god, but are a good person, I believe you will go to heaven. If you have heard of god, are a good person, but deny him you shall go to hell, if you are a bad person and claim to believe in god but still commit murder/rape and the like, you shall go to hell, for none who truly believe would continue to do those actions.
One other thing is this, you don't need religion to be morally right, but I'm of the opinion that it surely helps. And babies don't go to hell, for they are still pure beings. Respect my beliefs and I shall respect yours. If anything everyone can surely agree that the concept of Christianity in and of itself is a good thing. That's my 2 cents.
