all a person can do is speak and live the truth ... if the other person seeing and hearing the truth rejects it from the heart theres no amount of babbling thats going to convince them .. God needs to deal with their heart first ..

I feel sorry for Christians. I think they are blinded by fallacy and blind faith in a sexist book that was written over 2000 years ago. They don't understand science and therefore discredit it. They think it is their "duty" to go around "convincing" people in some outdated brainwashed thing that doesn't make any sense. Most of the time many of them don't even follow the words of Jesus and don't act like He would have wanted them to. (I'm a Pagan and I often act more "Christian-like" than most Christians!!!)
Trust me, you don't need to "save" us. Worry about yourself and what you are doing to make the world a better place and just remember that it has nothing to do with religion. All organized religions are wrong in one way or another. Otherwise, why would there be so many??? You know why? Because before scientific advances, people needed a way to understand the world so they invented religion. I prefer to remain Pagan because NONE of science's advances have disproven my religion. Stop putting all your blind faith into something and then rejecting and slamming anything and everything that scientifically proves it wrong.
God gave you a brain. Use it.

Too many people call themselves Atheists when they are really Agnostics. They see fundamentalist Christianity as the only option aside from "weird" Eastern religions (e.g., Buddhism, Hinduism, etc.) or Atheism, so they call themselves Atheists.
Myself, I'm a Christian-Buddhist-Deist-Agnostic.
In other words, I totally agree with what Jesus said (but disagree with most of the man-made dogma in the Bible), love the Buddhist tradition, am basically a scientist (like Jefferson, Franklin, etc.), but still realize the possibility that everything is just random.

Dear, you can't save anybody. Only Jesus Christ saves and He only saves those that are drawn by the Holy Spirit. Sad to say but some people have ran off the Holy Spirit and it won't come back. It is kind of like saying "beyond redemption" or the "unpardonable sin". Some people won't be saved. I commend your attitude but like Jesus told his disciples, shake off the dust from your feet and move on.

It is quite simple. I am an atheist, and I will tell you exactly what i would need in order to recant my ways.
Evidence. Just one single measurable phenomena that can be attributed purely to the actions of god rather than any other alternate explanation which is already based on sound evidence supported theory. That's all I would need. If anyone can ever present me with such, then I will cease to be an atheist.

The only person you should worry about saving is yourself
Ask why you need to save others?
People have their own thoughts and feeling and just because it is not the same as yours you want to change them
Wake up get a life open your mind and search for what life is really about you might be surprised

There are too many contradictions your religion. There is even one in your description of the question. "they will suffer if they do not see the light of Jesus Christ?" I thought your God was full of love? Even Jesus said in the Bible to love everyone just like he loved you. So now they will suffer? Why won't you understand how poorly constructed your religion is?

We can't change for who they are. Only they can change themselves. The best thing we can do is pray. Pray that the Lord will open their hearts to Him. It's hard to witness those who don't know the Lord and it's sad to see them not knowing the Lord. The Lord will reveal Himself to them when it's the right time. I've been praying for those who I see that has been lost. I'm not sure how they are doing now but I will not give up hope or faith. Stay strong in the Lord, He is in control of everything. God Bless you and I will pray for you too for strength. =)

Poor Christians.
They worship uncertainty.
They study lies.
So superstitious.
Yet they're so obedient! If the Bibble told them to have sex with every passing cow they would! Lol.
All thier dogma and bigotry they try to get into schools to pervert NORMAL RATIONAL LOVING children into their ways. It's medieval and it's sad. Of course they'd love to burn/drown me for saying this, but unfortuneately their time in power is gone. HEY GUYS WE FOUND OUT THE EARTH IS ROUND!
Don't let them near your kids!
Reality Loves You!

You're trying to save atheists on the Internet? That's like trying to hunt polar bears in Panama.
