We already do. Haven't you noticed yet that we're right?
If not, go ahead and try that altar thing from 1 Kings 18. When the fire doesn't come, I'd be happy to remind you that "I told you so".

Nah, it's not about whether god exists, Xenu exists, or if Heaven's gate was right. They believe that stuff because they were caught at a time of vulnerability. (The cult either made them suggestible or the religious people preyed upon them when they were children.) If they are thinking irrationally, no proof from reality will convince them otherwise. That's religion's strength.

I believe you're referring to the afterlife. The answer then would be, "no," since if they are right they will not persist to tell anyone anything at all. This all hints of Pascal's Wager, which says that if you bet your life on Christianity vs. atheism you only win if you bet on Christianity. Of course, God isn't just looking for people who are seeking to hedge their bets; He's after those who truly desire Him (thus His partial hiddeness). However, this does serve to point out how important it is to give theism a fair hearing and not just casually shrug it off. If you're wrong about it you've got big problems.

Great question! I don't think, they will ever get to say those words - especially, if they have something to do with the existence of God.
They will go to their grave hoping they've been right all along - only to find out they've been wrong, and it will be too late! Any atheist out there, you should know what to do to avoid regret.

Nobody has the answer to that. One must wait until death to determine if there is an afterlife. In which case nobody would be able to come back & say "I told you so."

Man I hope so! I am so tired of these bible banging so called "christians" that shove religion in your face and constantly feel the need to remind you that you're going to hell. The arrogance of them makes me want to puke and I yearn for the day when I can see them weep from their stupidity. Maybe then they will regret all of their judgemental behavior.

We say it all the time. I mean really, how much more science, research, geology, biology, genetics, physics, etc does it take? The question is- will the theists ever listen. The answer here, sadly, is 'no'.

Yes, when they're reincarnated. However, Christians who reincarnate will feel an inexplicable bond with Christianity, and their subconscious memories will make them feel that they have a mystical and magical "personal relationship with God", so the cycle will simply repeat itself.

Will donkeys, snakes, and bushes start talking "again" like in the old testament. Will people get turned into salt "again"? Unlikely since it never happened.

I wouldn't want to- the choices people make in life carry consequences that they need to live with and it's not for me to comment on that.
