you asked. my personal opinion is that atheists are ignorant. i don't mean this in a derogatory sense. faith can be a tough concept to latch onto for a person who thinks they know everything. we need these people too, lol. some of my best friends are atheists, but they respect me as a christian.
this is good for a trick question. was that your intention? let me know so i can give you a star.

To the Atheist to make him think that maybe he is not right of not believing that God exists. To the Ignorant, maybe an elementary education will make him a believer. It is the Atheist that has to be taken good care of. Like the parable of the Son being the black sheep of the family.

In truth the gift would be received by all
God does not judge, so the gift would be for all
We are all connected, so there is no other sane answer
Do any of you honestly believe that people don't believe in a higher power, a creator, a divine being.
God is the name given by Christians,
People who called themselves spiritual (which everyone is by the way, as we all have spirit) can call "God" by other names.
So called ignorant people are not ignorant, they are probably God fearing, as opposed to in awe of God, (neither being "right", as everyone on the planet is of God)
All these questions, bickering, arguing, why do you do it. It is only keeping you from your connection with God/the divine/maker of the universe/ultimate creator/God I am/Allah/The Higher Power .
Let it all go, let people live where they live, either in the heart with God, or in the mind with the ego.
Nobody has the right to "needle" people about there beliefs.
Live your truth, it will change, allow change.
God is Gracious

The ignorant would not recognize that he/she is being given a gift from God because he/she would be too ignorant. I would choose the Atheist because God would want to bribe the Atheist into believing in Him with a gift.
I don't think that laying my life down in front of an oncoming truck
just for a higher calling would be good, though. [just joking, B-DIDDLE...I knew what you meant]

special gift? like the confession that he really doesn't exist and that all those wars have been waged in vain? hehe.
atheist probably though.
atheists have to go through a thought process to reach a conclusion that there is no god. rarely someone wakes up in the morning and over coffee arbitrarily decides to "go atheist". a reward for at least bothering to use your brain.
although, if the reward was regular use of the cerebral functions for more than flipping the channels on the remote, the ignorant deserves it better. nothing worse than people who choose ignorance over knowing. fix them - make them not-ignorant.

Well of course He wouldn't HAVE to...after all, whose making Him? He's GOD! But if He did I think it would be to the ignorant, for the reason that to be an atheist hasn't one studied the concepts of God to decide? Whereas the ignorant wouldn't know. What a blessing that would be...

guys! guys! all you have to do is look at a book of saints. there are many many saints whose I.Q was way below average. some where severely retarded and yet they have been a relieable witness to the virgin mary or has had stigmata of jesus. jesus loves the humble person. children stand a better chance of seeing jesus and mary while on earth than adults becuse children have an innocense about them. just take a look at some of the saint that witness visions of mary. god has already given the saints gifts of grace. some saints could bi locate, others could heal and etc. I wish I could remember the name of the saint ( three children) who saw the virgin mary several times in medjegurie, and there was a girl child saint who's I.Q was very low she didn't know who mary was but she saw vision of mary near a river cave. people come around to be healed at that river. perhaps someone who is catholic and know of the saints I am speaking of can explain better. but just know that god has and contiues to give gifts to people, the poor and ignorant and humble are his favorites. the athest has detached himself from god therefore god cannot give him his good graces or gifts. gifts that we can all recieve if we would just humble ourselves and believe.

the final present of god to human beings is that: we've ultimate ideas between all creature God had made. God has created all different animals who like to a minimum of one yet another,who cares for the different and what no longer. yet through ideas we've achieved each element over and notably others.

If he had something to give he would give it to someone who did not need it in the first place, or already had whatever this "gift" is. Because god is one funny and cruel dude. He makes people burn for not worshiping him, how conceited and selfish. The only gift he could give that's worth crap is to show himself, and say "hey, here I am" then I would believe in him. But he wants to play mind games and tricks and then send people to eternal damnation. gods a joke

I love gifts and my mother tells me I am God's gift to her. But my mother is not atheist and she knows many things - not ignorant at all. I do not believe what you say.
