Why do you expect someone else to atone for your sins?
It's not Jesus' fault that you are a sinner. It's yours.
You need to take responsibility for your own actions. If your actions are so terrible that someone needs to be punished for them, then that someone is you. Not Jesus.
If God judges people based on their actions in life, then I am perfectly willing to be judged.
If God judges people based on their belief in him, then God is immoral and I would prefer eternal punishment in hell to an eternal heavenly reward from such an evil being.

I will explain that his 'revealing' of himself wasn't very clear and was open to a lot of speculation.
I would suggest ways in which he could improve his 'revealing' approach.
I would tell him that as I now KNOW he exists, I repent (which would be true!)
I would KNOW that if God trully loves us all, then he would understand that I was merely using the logical mind that he gave me to question when things don't quite add up
Surely God would not hate an Atheist when they are just being reasonable?

I am my own judge and juror. I know when i have done wrong and i act accordingly. I am not a bad peson and i do not live my life in fear of retribution. The only way to evolve is to make mistakes and learn from them.
There is no judgement day for God's sake. If i believed that I would never experience fully the life God gave me.

Verbal judo....what will you say to Buddha when he appears to enlighten you, or Muhammad to deliver you to peace, or that one guy who thinks he is the Antichrist, or that big head that shoots lightening from star trek V....ohhhh in your face loser. Look dude stop trying to force your beliefs on other people. Live and let live. If you are right then as per your religion god will forgive our sins because of the sacrifice made by Jesus, if you are wrong...he will steal your enterprise. HA!

How Christian of you to gloat. That's a sin right? You know God yet you sin by condemning us to hell ... God won't be pleased with you if you directly contravene Him and expecting for all to be forgiven at the end just like that. You're burning with us, you know that right?
Live in fear. What a sad life. I see no evidence for God and so I don't live my life according to some story.

And what will you say when there is no god on a non-existent Judgement day?
Not all Atheists reject Jesus.

Here we go again.
I'll tell you why you love your InvisibleSkyCritter - it's cos you haven't got the courage to take the punt that he does NOT exist.
You believe there an invisible man in the sky who watches everything you say, think and do, 24/7 and says that you should love him and suck up to him 24/7 or he'll send you to burn in hell.
Love under threat or duress is FEAR no matter how you paint it, excuse it, explain it OR deny it.

He revealed him self to me? When? Why do I need anyone to forgive my sins? Anything bad I've done is my own business. I don't need saved I'm very happy and I'm living a life I'm not ashamed of. Unless one day I go to court and your in the jury do not judge me and I will have the courtesy to do the same.

^ I'm the same as jeannielunchbox... except there is no god so we are safe. And even if there was... what kind of god wants subjects to worship him on bended knees, with hands clasped together.... to be so weak and subservient to him.
He sounds like Simon Cowell and you as his fame wannabees have to do some crappy song and dance for him with a fake smile on your face.

I don't know, what would you say to Zeus when he said he is going to throw you to Hades for rejecting him even though he revealed himself to you and you choose to believe in a hippi?
