I am interested to hear what all the different Christians have to say about where I am going to go. Also, if you are a different religion, don't hesitate to tell me.

In the ground or an Incinerator. Unless you are a donor.

What people believe is one thing. What people who nearly died and where brought back (like heart attack, accidents) is another. Regardless of religion, people who have first hand experience of what might happen when we die is the same regardless of their background. The question is: is it a trick of the brain in the last moments or is it real... There may be more than what science knows right now and more than just the physical body. Who knows. It may be that people go to some sort of parallel universe that matches their beliefs, so if you don't actually believe in anything, your options are open. Personally at the moment, I would opt for a 5 star hotel all inclusive :-)

Well...if you die this very second, you will go to hell for all eternity...suffering horrifically in a manner that cannot be conceived by the human mind.
But...given that you are alive and only in your mid-twenties and in college, and will probably live for some time longer...I am putting my bet on: heaven.
Yeah...that's right. I think you will go to heaven. Seriously.
I am betting that God will reveal Himself to you...and you will repent...and believe in the Gospel. When this happens, you will be quite overwhelmed with the mercy, grace, and love of God...touched in a way that most "Christians" never are. You will then have a voracious appetite for the truth and doctrines of the Bible (in a way most Christian never do) and even become a “teacher” of the Bible to others. Other Christians will admire your passion and boldness for Christ, and you will know the Lord more intimately than many who “grew up” in Christian family as a Christian. And you will despise “false” teaching…and “false” Christians - indeed, you will have the gift of discernment and see through things that others cannot.
It happened to Paul, too.
See you in heaven…punk.

WHO REALLY KNOWS! It ultimately will be up to you when your conscious starts separating from your physical body upon death . You may have to make a decision on which path to follow. I truly believe there are paths to choose: (the white light, the dark, or stuck in between). What you believe while you were in physical existence will help you to decide. I hope you are aware of what can possibly await you on either side and have the knowledge to make the best decision for you. I'm sure being an atheist and all you don't believe your soul goes anywhere, you just die and turn to dust. But really evaluate the afterlife, would it hurt you any to have knowledge of it? I think you should just in case.

As long as you live the best life you can. Every Christian should tell you that God will welcome you with open arms into the gates of paradise. However if you use your Atheist status as a shield and do foul deeds and say it doesn't matter because God doesn't exist, then there could be some issues. These issues will be cleared up if you come face to face with him and if there is an error of belief on your part are sorry for that error.

Your atheist seem totally different from Budaist which will not think there was a creator then will come out another question who is the creator of creator. Budaist tells gods is higher level of creatures which still have certain level of suborn to have taste good, to smelt good, to touch good, to listening good, to view good, or the think about good or bad. those are the desire which cause us torture and pressure, such as waiting result of fulfilling wishes, cannot fulfill wishes etc. How did you come from and where will you go to after this life? Which is according to your unfulfilling wishes. The different suborn of level will casue different level of creatures will be.
For examples; you love sleeping and eating. Your good karma will bring you to a zone easily to get food and you need not to work for. The bad karma will bring you to be a shell, clam, snail etc. These kind of creatures can be eating and sleep and need not to work for long time. Being your died, your body 4 elements are dismembered, you are painfully to find a way to go. When the image come to you a beautiful palace you found, you easily will go inside then you already be clam and no change until you died for next recreation again.
Being this life, you trust and believe Jehova, christ, Ali, buda, dragon whatever will come to you when your 4 elements is being dismember. When you can go with your god, you torture will gone as you already leaving your body away.
Where will you be? It will be your own willing.
Where did you come from? you come from your own wishes. Your own wishes are all your desires.

As a Pagan, I think that we all wind up in the same place in the afterlife. Many Pagans use the term Summerland to describe it. However, I'm not going to determine where people outside of my belief structure will end up in the hereafter. That's none of my business.

I just looked up the meaning of Atheism, and it said " A person who is of the belief in the non-existence of God." The Bible says that in order to be saved & go to heaven, you must accept God's son as your personal Savior, be baptized & live for Him. So, if your salvation depends on your treatment of Jesus, God's Son, and you do not believe in the existence of God, then you can't accept His Son as your Savior, therefore, you will not be saved, and therefore after death, you will go to hell. This is all by the BOOK , the BIBLE.

my religion tells me you'll go to heaven, where you will find out what your wampeter was (which object your life revolved around), and your karass (which people in the world were connected to that object, just like you).
Then again, everything I know about my religion comes from the book of Bokonon, which says on the cover:
"Don't be a fool! Close this book at once! It is nothing but foma!"
(foma means lies)

For those with a religion, they will either go to heaven or to hell.
For agnostics, they will go to the great "what if".
For the atheists, you will just become fertilizer, nothing more, nothing less.

You will go where you are most comfortable. You won't be comfortable being with God. If you won't recognize his help and love on earth,you wouldn't want or deserve it after. You will receive reward for the type of life you live according to what you know is right.
