First of all, Im not Atheist, I'm hindu and I believe in my faith. Second, why do people tease Atheists and force them to believe in God??? Just because someone doesn't believe in God, doesn't mean that they are a bad person. Am I right?

I don't tease or make fun of atheists. I have never seen anyone force anyone to believe in anything, let alone force an atheist to believe in God. How could you possibly do that? I don't think it's possible to force people to believe things; people choose what they believe. I agree with you that just because people do not believe in God, that does not make them bad. There are lots and lots of perfectly normal people who do not believe in God, some even go to church on Sundays. But that's a different story.

Well ,I personally dont have anything against atheists.Just want to get that one out of the way.
I really dont understand your question exactly but,I will tell you the reasons I believe atheists shouldent complain about being singled out sometimes.
#1.)Most Atheists FLAUNT the fact that they are Atheist in the first place,there-by singleing themselves out.Much like(in my opinion)many homo-sexuals today.One can either believe in god or not(or be gay or not),but that doesent mean that they should try and push there beliefs unto others.A Christian preaching and an Atheist flaunting are two different things,imo.but im not saying that theres no Christians who "flaunt"there beliefs either.
#2.)People who are Christian(self-proclaimed anyways) and many other religiously minded people are persecuted every single day.Atheists arent the only ones getting the bad rap.
If you dont want the answer...

And why do atheist make fun of us that do believe in God,
And TRY to convince us God doesn't exist?
Just because someone does believe in God, doesn't mean they are a bad person. Am I right?

If you had any understanding of the Word of God, you would understand that those who are believers in Jesus Christ know that if a man dies in his sins, his soul will be cast into the fires of hell where it will be tormented night and day.
And just as it is not the will of our Heavenly Father that any should perish, it is that same desire in the believers who have been saved from the fires of hell, that none should perish.
You make claims that those who believe in God tease and force atheists to believe in God. You could not be more wrong. A believer will witness to those who are unsaved in hopes they will come to the Lord and be saved.
For life on this earth is a mist that is here for a moment and gone the next. The decision you make on this earth while you still have breathe in your lungs will last for all eternity.
Believe in Jesus Christ and be saved from eternal torment or ignore God's free gift of salvation and spend eternity is torment.
You make your own choice. No one is forced. That is not the way of the Lord. If that were the case, Adam and Eve would not of had choice, for the tree of good and evil would not have been in the garden.

Christains today are too busy forcing the bible down thorats that they don't see why they are failing to convert. By doing so they are showing a terrible side of christianity that should never even have began. Atheissts are not bad people by anymeans, its true that my beleif tells me they will go to hell if they don't beleif in God but i will not be mean and rude to them. I cannot force them to believe in anything they dont want to

if I could force an atheist to do anything, believe in God would be at best second on the list (where's bettierage when I need her?).

The only thing i find funny about athiests is that they are a lot of talk... they think they have it all figured out, that they hold the secrets to the universe when they really don't even know the first thing.

You are right. But it's ok, the insults I recieve are often "I'm going to hell," and that really doesn't hurt my feelings. My retort is often meant to be thought provoking, and if I do in fact, provoke thought, I leave my R&S session pleased.
