Funny how some people get so offended by a question...
And to those who say that I cannot say "I will always be" an Atheist...then you cannot say you will always be a Christian, Muslim, Jew, etc.
...just trying to spread some Holiday spirit. Feels good when others wish well upon you, as I do on to all of you.

Mahal- I like how you limit my choices...I create my own choices...and am not dictated my choices by you or any other being. I am not in the sporting mood actually...but be warned...it's very hard to sell to a salesman.

yes.
freedom of religion means any religion,
that includes freedom to not choose a religion.
i will pray that you are always granted the freedom do as you believe to be right for you.
no one can decide the outcome of your life for you.
may you have a peaceful holiday season,
and although you are an Ateist,
i hope you are able to be with those you care about for the holiday season.
i am Pagan myself, and yet i spend Christmas and other Christian holidays with my Christian family...

Yes i will pray for you... while our beliefs differ i do think that anything is possible... there may not be a God but i would rather live my life believing there is one and find out there isnt than living not believing there is one and find out there is... just remember that the ultimate decision is up to you... whatever you choose will decide how you spend eternity...

If you are a good human being who performs meritorious deeds, you shall be a blessed soul whether you believe in God or not. And I can assure you that all those lives whom you shall touch positively shall pray for you if ever you are in need of prayers. Please go to metahistory.org and see how wonderfully John Lash is challenging the tyranny of beliefs that have enslaved human mind and have become the biggest hurdle in man's spiritual progress.

Given that as an R&S participant, you have already rejected the saving work of Jesus, I will do as He will, and permit you your free will choice. You are making an eyes open choice.
edit- Oops... sorry, I just prayed for you. Oh, well...

Sure, since you asked. I pray that the Lord will show you that you can trust Him as the way, the truth and the life.
Merry Christmas.

Now you've gone and done it.
A purposeless man is a sad thing.
Laugh while you have time to laugh.
Soon enough there will be tears.
Should I even waste one word upon a dog, when that dog will only bite me anyway?
When you are serious, then will I unleash a prayer your way. Until then, you do not want to taste such bitterness.

If you wanted me to, I would. What exactly would I be praying for you for? For you to find God, find your car keys, remote control, that someone will deliver Holiday treats to your door?
Let me know. (all in good humor BTW, I think your question is great)

I'd be willing to bet that I can tell you ONE story, and you'd convert.
If you were stubborn, you might take a year or so, but your surrender would be inevitable.
I have two secrets:
--the story is powerful
--your stubbornness is your greatest weakness
After hearing the story, you have to lie to yourself and betray yourself for a long time before you give in. Your only other choice is to recognize the truth of the story.

Are you all talk? Not in the sporting mood, aye?

do you know that no man can profess that Jesus is the son of God unless the Spirit of God softens his heart and draws him...so....despite your declaration of forever rejecting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior...if you will allow Him, the Spirit of God will soften your heart and open your eyes...if you ask him to.
now get out of your little box..."mr. i have to understand everything" and rely on your maker, not yourself.
the word of God declares: "BE STILL AND KNOW I AM GOD"
stop thinking you gotta conceive it all in your little mind...you dont know exaclty how your body works to keep you alive do you? relax
