What if you atheists were able to convince every person on earth that there was no God. After this earthly existence was over and you found out there was a God, would you ask for forgiveness from the people and God?

Hypothetically: I'd rally the people to demand an explanation from it for all the nonsense...

Of course. I admit when I am wrong so I would not have any problem asking for forgiveness. According to believers, evidence against God was put on Earth by God to test your faith. So I would tell Him/Her/It that they did a great job to convince me that they were made up.

Hypothetically, I hope to be reincarnated as a mushroom. At least that way, there will be a rational reason to be kept in the dark and fed bull**** all day like believers in a non-existant god.

No way! I am a human being and do not need to be forgiven for my own thoughts. Hypothetically, if Yahweh turned out to be real, I'd beg to be sent to Hell. I could never subordinate myself to the most vicious genocidal maniac ever created by the human imagination. The Christian God is so undeniably evil He deserves nothing but scorn.

If that were to happen, hypothetically, then we would all be asking for forgiveness from God.
To do otherwise would not make sense.

If they could convince everyone of this, maybe we would see God as beyond all human conceptualization. Man makes a God from his ideas, and this is the block to knowing. Man imposes all his human qualities on God and it is impossible to see beyond these limited ideas. God has no human qualities, it is quite the opposite.

There would be no people of god if they were all convinced there was no god, so there would be no one to apologize to.
God should apologize, if the bible and/or qur'an are truly divinely inspired, for sending us such unbelievable messengers, such ambiguous and nonsensical scripture and not personally taking a serious interest in mankind. Of course, that assumes there is a god to apologize, which hasn't been proven as of this date.

No matter which way you look at it, it is better to believe in God unless you can show that atheists always have a better and more productive life than those who believe in God.

Hypothetically speaking this is an answer. No.
The reason is that I was honest in my disbelief, non-judjmental and would be prepared to accept the consequences - of which there would be none. Death is final and hell is a Christian invention.

No Hypothetically the god would be at fault for providing absolutely no credible evidence and then demanding belief.
