or what if Christians are wrong and there is no God, what will happen to them after they die? Who's at a greater risk?

If Christians are wrong and there is no God then its all over, no life after death. If there is a God, and life after death, then I would say its bad news for those who decided to reject God.

The concept of a god is wrong on many grounds, first of all... God is an Atheist because he has no god above him, Therefore self contradicting himself all by himself, without the help of believers or non-believers. Secondly, EVERYTHING is relative!!! A fly is a "god" to a microbe, a bird is a "god" to a fly, a cat is a "god" to a bird, a chimp might be a "god" to a monkey, a chimp might be a "god" to a monkey, a human would be a "god" to a chimp... a cat might be a "god" to a human like in ancient Egypt... it's all skrewd up!!! Therefore basic reasoning or advanced thinking and Okhams Razor would deduct that god is major Bull ****!!! In short, no god, no heaven... you die, you are dead... unless you get reanimated through a technological process after death. Why is it soooo imposible for belivers to reason this???

If atheists are wrong - I'm thinking God would give them a chance to get into heaven. If Christians are wrong, I guess they'll be lost forever when they die. I not thinking one's at more risk than the other, what happens happens - nothing we can do about it.

This is the old "pascal's wager" argument. It falls apart when you ask things like:
What if there is no God, only Satan. What will happen to Christians then? Who's at greater risk?
This isn't a basis for anyone to decide to believe something as serious as their personal religion. It also isn't very convincing.

If atheists are wrong, then who knows what will happen. Does that mean Christians are right? Catholics? Protestants? Muslims? Jews? Buddhists? Even assuming one of the 100's of the world's religions is actually THE right one, then I guess some sort of he11 is in order for a whole lot of people! Thankfully, all the cool people will be there partying with Satan, fornicating with and sodomizing his harem of hot-as-hell hookers, doing drugs, and blaspheming. All the religious dorks will be upstairs bowing down and serving their eternal Master as His slave...washing his feet, feeding him grapes, and telling him how great he is.

Nobody. God doesn't care what we believe in, that is why there is no way to prove his existence. If he cared about all that, he would talk to each and every person in the world, or he would have a weekly press conference or something. He doesn't give a rip if someone is atheist or Christian. What he cares about is what is in their heart.
I personally think that he'd rather have a heaven full of kind, morally responsible atheists, than let one hypocritical Christian in, but that's just me.

The bible tells us that there are two judgment seats. One is the great white throne judgment. This is for all people who have rejected Jesus Christ (i.e., God). There is only one pronouncement for these people: lost.
Believers in Jesus Christ appear at a different thone: the judgement seat of Christ. Here they will be rewarded for what they have done on earth. They are saved, and gain entrance to heaven because of their faith in Jesus.
Your question is...what if? With all due respect, I do not believe there is any chance the bible isn't the truth.

well they say if when you are dying, you accept Jesus Christ as your personal lord and savior. You can be forgiven of all your sins. As an Atheist thought it really doesn't matter anyway. I mean lets say there is a god. I live right then I'm a good guy so why would I burn.

This is called, as I'm sure you've been told, "Pascal's Wager." The problem inherent in this line of thinking is that it assumes that Jehovah is the "one true god." If it turns out that Odin is the "one true god," and he is angry with you for not excelling in battle, you're in the same boat as the atheists.
