pretty much a broad question so here it goes.
Christian what if you die and Allah and Muhammad are looking at you, what would you say as your being rejected from heaven?
Muslims what will u do if your looking at Jesus when you die and he really is God, and your being rejected from his presence. What would you say to him?
Atheists what would you do if you died and saw God, what would you say?
And just one more for theists....What if you died and knew there was no God. I know this question is flawed because you wouldnt be alive to know, but what if you just somehow found out once you died.
Have no worries, Peace =D

Q:Atheists what would you do if you died and saw God, what would you say?
I'd point out that my atheism wasn't for any lack of trying on my part to be a theist. I read plenty of books and web pages about the existence of god, the Bible, an afterlife, science, philosophy, non-Christian religion, Evolution/creation, ect.
Life and death were my most prized interestes in life, and I studied religion, science, and philosophy far more than most people.
I'd remind him that Christianity did not predict the world that I lived and that was why I abandoned it. As a liberal theist I continued to repent and ask to be forgiven, however. I also understood that if I were to go to heaven, it would be only by the grace of God.
I very much wanted God to exist, but could not find a single good reason. Only fallacies. Since Christians couldn't even reason properly, why should I have trusted their theology?
I'd also point out that the only thing religious people ever worshipped was themselves. If he hadn't figured that out and seen straight through their crap, he has no business calling himself God.

I`m christian, and I believe that God is a just judge! If I`ve been wrong, then I would know that God would do the just thing, whatever that might be!
If, as a christian, I found out that there was no God, then what have I lost? Having lived my life to follow biblical principles as much as possible?
On the other hand what will atheists have to lose if they find out that the christians were right?

Since I am agnostic, I am open to any eventuality. However, because of my irreverence and rejection of organized religion, I am not likely to be warmly received in the afterlife should any of the theists be proven to have been correct in their beliefs. If there is a deity, however, I expect him to be much more lenient and understanding that the pious describe him, since, in my opinion, an entity with the intelligence and imagination to conceive of and create a Cosmos would not then be narrow-minded, petty, and vindictive, being capable of understanding the human mind and the reason for some of his progeny's inabilities to accept and believe religious dogma!

I think if there really is a God, he won't send us to Hell for calling him a different name. If he does, well whatever I wouldn't want to be in the same Kingdom as him anyway. If there isn't a God, I'll just be like whatever, it made me happy during life. If the real God is there when I die (the one I worship) then I'd have a lot of questions for him. :)

Doesn't concern me in the slightest if I am wrong any god that wouldn't accept a good man who doesn't believe the drivel and s*** you see posted by Christians here I want nothing to do with . If he accepts them then I guess hell will be a better place than heaven anyway .

Well, given that I know there IS a God, I'm not worried, but for the sake of argument, an attempt to be better for God, much as we try to be good people when around our loved ones, makes my impact on the Earth and on society better.
I don't think God is so legalistic as to worry about what name you use.

Atheist:
i would ask him why he never bothered helping the people when they were in need
I would ask him the ridiculous and oppressing rules and ask him if it was really him he wrote all that.
I would ask him why as a peaceful and loving god he would really let millions kill over him.
I would ask him why he created people on earth for only a few days to live(children who die of poverty, murdered,bombed).
Basically, i have a lot of questions.This is just the few.

Right or wrong, I stand by my position. If there is a God and I see it when I die, then I'll clearly point out the failure of God to help Mankind in its most desperate moments, and openly challenge that God has no right to judge me in any way for taking no responsibility in my life.
I will ring your doorbell and run away!!!

Just as we'd be surprised at some of the folks who made it to Heaven, we'd be even more surprised to be greeted by Allah and Mohamed.

You've just refuted Pascal's wager, congrats.
If I was wrong, what ever god or gods that were real would know that I had a ton of questions to ask them.
