Christians assign all other to hell because it's a simple basic evolutionary trick for success. Exclude a group as outsiders and it's easy to justify beating them, destroying them, raping them, stealing their food and resources and women and murdering them.
Christians have been doing it to non-Christians from day one. In their defense, so has everyone else. Exclusionism is a product of evolution that Christians incorporate into their religion with complete gusto.
Jesus was just a poor Jewish carpenter that had a few good thoughts and was made responsible for everything after he died.

The same reason why he is so tolerant to all people on the planet.
What did poor atheist do for you? I am an atheist but I have never had such burning desire to send you to hell. That's why I live peacefully according to the human laws and never insulted people with such questions. Have a nice day!!!

I doubt Jesus can send anyone to anywhere. But why should anyone go to hell simply for not believing in something?

The answer is... Jesus sends nobody nowhere!
If anybody sends somebody somewhere, it's God! But Heaven is only for Christians, and so is Hell.
Atheists don't go to Hell because it doesn't exist (nor does God, nor Heaven).

dear sifting, love the nose , lose the hat. now to answer your question. If you don't believe in any god that means you don't believe in THE god. And it follows that you sure wouldn't believe in Christ. and if you don't believe in him you are done . for it is your belief in him that keeps you from burning up when you go through the gate of fire when you go through the purification process before entering heaven. of course heaven is wherever god is. So the atheists will send themselves to hell if they don't change their minds. God actually doesn't send anybody to hell they do it to themselves. swindled

Simple. "If you reject the Father, He will reject you". Because God loves them and wants not for them to parish but to have everlasting life, Atheists choose Hell themselves by rejecting Jesus Christ, the Word of God)."For there is no other name under which one can be saved". Atheists cannot love in the same manner as a True child of God can. Their love is a product of sin, the pride of life, of self and of the world, not of God. God's love is an "unconditional" perfect love. TRUE Christians OBEY HIS COMMANDMENTS. They love God with "all their minds all their hearts, all their souls". And "love their nieghbors (fellow man) as they would love themselves". A so-called loving Atheist is an oxy-moron. God's love in the true sense of the word and the practice of Atheism are exact opposites. Therefore, again I say to you, "If you reject the Father, He will reject you".

Because Jesus and hell make for a great story, but neither actually exist..?

We are saved by faith in Jesus, not by loving, which is a work.
We as Christians are to love others through Jesus.

He loves all.
Whether you want Him to or not, Jesus Christ DIED for atheists. He died for you too. He loves us with an uncomprihensible and unconditional love.
