1. Lobotomy
2. Purchase blinders, affix firmly (superglue should work)
3. Start your list of people you will hate because they don't believe as you do. (leave yourself some time for this one, it may take awhile)

There are more, but that's a good start. I really really hope you're not serious.

If you believe in god, you are not an atheist. If you are not sure you are an agnostic. If you don't believe in God you are not a Christian.

The question seems a little weird the way it is worded. I could see an agnostic think to make the change. I could see an atheist become an agnostic. I could even see a sudden change of heart. But it seems inconsistent the way it is. I don't see you defining yourself as an atheist and saying that you are considering something that is contrary to what you are claiming your belief is.

Fist you need to believe in God and that He sent His only Son (Jesus) to die on the cross for the sins of ALL and that Jesus arose on the third day and ascended into heaven to sit on the right hand of God the Father Almighty. Then admit you are a sinner and ask Jesus to forgive you and ask Him to come into your heart and make you a "new" person. Then find a good Bible and begin studying it fowards and backwards and find a good Bible believing church to attend. PRAISE GOD!! I'm praying for you!!

Do whatever feels right to you bud.
Life can be a long journey and it's certainly beneficial at times to have stick to lean on along the way. The destination's important too, so should your walking stick come with a map you believe is of trustworthy source, then it stands to reason one should follow it's guidance.
As to whether the map is accurate, comes down to how trustworthy the source truly is.

There are a plethora of paths for us to choose from; each ultimately leads to our destination. It is up to each individual to discover initially, which road leads where.

Wishing you wisdom and good judgment in all you do.

That is wonderful. Going to church is the first step. The only advice I can give is to not give advice and just say open your heart to the lord as his door is waiting for you to knock and he will open it. The rest is up to you to have that relationship with him and be saved.

God Bless--

Do it! That's all the advice I can give. If you are serious and want to, do it and God will take over in your life. God alone knows your heart and if you let Him will work in it to make you a being that glorifies Him. God bless you.

Remember this verse, I always use this in prayers.
Jeremiah 33:3 "Call unto me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things that you do not know"
This is the thing that enlightened me, my hotline to God. Call Him and for sure He will answer and will lead you to the right path. Your eyes will be opened, always remember God had called you by name, we are individually known by God, so better talk to Him His answering.
God Bless your decision.

do no longer % a denomination, % Christ's church. The bible by no potential authorized denominations and there is not any denominations in the bible. Denominations have been commonly used so as that human beings could take the contributions to help themselves as institutions that carry out secular applications. The church isn't a social club or provider service. This destroys the non secular purpose of the church and the point of the assemblies. some churches enslave human beings to them through fact they matter on the social centers they supply, like the Catholic church. It has this is grip on undesirable those that use it for centers and by no potential learn the bible or care plenty to do what Jesus instructed them to do. The Baptist churches teach Calvinistic doctrine and not biblical doctrine.
