Thanks for the answers, folks, and to those who starred.
May you all do the selfless, noble thing when someone needs your help.

Of course not, I'd be grateful to anyone who did that...and not just for myself or a loved one. I see acts of heroism all the time in the news and I have no idea what religious beliefs they hold. It doesn't matter.......that's a selfless act anyone should be commended for.

Does it matter who saves you life...no....does it matter if they believe in religion or not....no...that person just saved you life, never understood the atheist thing since that is a religious term, so you have somewhat religion in you when you say you are....I don't, it's all a belief (my thinking), but guarantee you I will try to save your life and don't care what you believe in, person's life is that person's life no matter what

U should be more grateful to the atheist, u don't have to search for a God, he is God, he has given u or a loved one, a second life, which only God can do. U are the atheist, not him, if u do not believe in this practical god, who gives life.

Why should the gallant action of saving a life be linked to the life-saver's personal beliefs? For me, he is simply a saviour and messiah, not necessarily, of any one and only one creed. In fact such hero, for me, would belong to "all" universal creeds! I like the highly universal teachings of the Ethical Society at St. Louis, Missouri.

No, of course not.
The guy (my ex husband) who shared genetic material to create our cute little boy is an atheist, I am always grateful to him for being a dad to our boy.

No, because no matter what a person believes or what religion a person is, that person is still a person. God, doesn't love an atheist any different than he loves me.

I will be still be grateful to God. Perhaps there's no way else God could save my life than to use another person. Even if he's the most bitter of my enemies then all thanks and glory belongs to God only.

No way. I'd be grateful even if it was Richard Dawkins saving my life.

No.. Many Atheists are good moral and respectable people. I wouldn't feel differently based on their religion or lack thereof.
