I believe you worship a sadist.
If your almighty God condemns people to eternal hell merely because they don't worship him, then he is the pinnacle of evil and I would prefer eternity in hell over eternity in his presence.

Atheists can and do believe in many things, just not god(s).
"I rather belieave in god and not have him be there than not belieave in god and not have him be there."
Google "Pascal's wager" and you'll see why it doesn't work.

"I still cant wait when all the athiest are going to be in hell going like.. oh crap maybe we shoulda belieaved! HAHAHA" -- Did you learn such behavior in church?

lol, since when does anybody have to believe in anything! like a lottery ticket,the odds against the jackpot far outweigh the payout.
and you don't know for sure that anyone goes to hell,thats just an assumption.

They don't want to believe because they have no faith. Having faith requires one to believe in something one can not see. I wonder though do they ever question the wind, their birth. these are just two examples where we do not see these things but hear about our birth and feel the wind. It's the angnostics that confuse me athesists don't believe that God is real but angnostics do not believe in anything.

Very Pascal, but I like the way you put it.
Most Lottery tickets don't pay off. I'm not spending my life on one.
This drawing is fixed by the way...

Your argument is very similar to "Pascal's Wager." You should look it up. However, do you think that we should "wager" our entire lives on the possibility that God exists in the way that you think that God exists? If you are wrong then you wasted your entire life.

Hey dummy... if that's what you base your faith on, you might as well believe in nothing. According to most religions, devotion is key. Atheists don't believe in anything because there is nothing to believe in. Plain and simple.

Why SHOULD they believe? It's not really your choice to say. And when you say you hope others end up your hell (which they don't believe in), you really look like a dick and make your religion look bad.
