@ Eds: I've read the bible. That's why I'm an atheist.

That's an odd question to me, because I could not call Him A god unless He was mine.
If you truly knew that a Being was in fact God, how could you NOT make Him yours?

I like my odds. If you are right and there is no God, then we are both going to be ok after we die. But, if I am right and there is a God, when we die I will still be ok, but you won't.
As far as the which god part of your question: the Hindu's have over 3000 gods, and there are numerous other gods from around the world. Can any one of them save you from an eternal existance of anguish? Only the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Christians has made that promise. That is what separates the "Judeo-Christian" God from all other gods.
So, neither of your choices is worse, they are the same.

I don't want you believe in my God just because I believe in him. I would want you to believe because it a beautiful thing, Now I am not the most regilous person, but I am working on it. Where are you if you have nothing to believe in. If you read the bible you would understand that God do love you and he wants you to believe in him. Something that I had to do is ask for faith, ask him to let me know that he is there. He did. But if you don't believe I am not judging you that is not my job.

It does not matter as you stated you are an atheist. So why are you asking to believe in any god?
Truly as the Bible stated, the fool says there is no god!
Folly question, foolish person.

There is only one God- so the answer to your question is not what is worse- but how sad that you do not desire to know God- the one who loves you even in the midst of your unbelief. God loved the whole world- not just the ones that he is saving.

I'm pretty sure you have a good reason not to believe in such things...There are multiple reasons around us everyday not to believe in God...All the war, pain and death...They way folks treat each other...The way "religious" people carry on...If I were the Devil that's exactly how I'd want it to be. (grin)
But you're right, most people that try to pour God down your throat are trying more to convince themselves than you...Religion is people trying bend God to fit their own will...If church go-ers really LOVED the folks that didn't believe in God, they'd be a lot more understanding of why others don't believe.

Well I choose "b". If you don't believe in any god, no one will give a damn. But if you don't believe in "my god", then prepare do dodge Bible bullets.
Human nature dictates that if you don't believe in a particular god concept, its adherrent will come to you like flies in honey.

a) Not believing in any God.
I couldn't care less whether or not you believe in my God.

There is only one true God and since he is my God, I guess the answer would be not believing in my God.
