good luck with that... i was raised christian, but things just don't make sense. I've read the bible, not all of it, and some parts are just disgusting.

The Bible says that only those who believe in Jesus Christ, and accept him as Lord of their lives, are given the forgiveness of sin that grants them eternal life. Assuming that's true, then no, an Atheist who denies Christ can not enter Heaven.

the bible also talks about talking snakes, an ark filled with every species, seas parting and many other ridiculous things... how can you live by a book full of fantasy and myths?

The entire basis of Christian belief, is of G-d. Are you saying that G-d can't make a snake talk? Or part the sea? Or fill an Ark with animals? I mean really... if G-d created the entire universe, I don't think parting a puddle is going to be a huge problem for him. You say it's not a puddle. To G-d it is.

They will go straight to hell! I believe so because the gospel is spread all over and they have chosen not to believe in it, Just like during Noah time and the flood. People who did not believe in Noah's Message were drowned in the flood.

you're wrong! hell and heaven is very real! it is not a man made idea.. try to read a bible so you can see that everything is real. the.. jhon 3:16 says, for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son and for those so ever believe in Him shall not but have eternal life... that's it. if you will not believe forevermore you will go to Hell...

No atheists would go to heaven and that is for sure. Jesus is the only way to heaven so how could anyone who don't know and don't recognize the way to heaven enter into this place. So sorry for you the atheists because unless they repent and accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior they can never enter heaven. They'd enter another place and you know what it is.

hi silverking. in my opinion, i think the concept of heaven and earth only depends on a person's religion. in all reality, no one has proven the existence of heaven and hell. dont get me wrong. i believe in God. if atheists do not believe in god/s, then they probably have different concept and approach on spirituality. however if we look at it in our religion, i suppose God is always forgiving. if atheists didn't believe in him, but when their time comes, they will be allowed to enter the kingdom as long as they were good to their neighbors and have been good individuals.

yes, God is full of mercy and grace, and he forgives those who repents. But God is also a God of judgement. repentance should happen first before judgement. If not, then he will be judged, whether he will go to heaven or hell. the person could not ask for forgiveness in hell, because he has already been judged. If God will just base judgment on the good things people have done, dont you think there will still be people in heaven who will sin? Because even good people sin. If a good person lies once a day, then he already has 364 sins a year, which still makes him a sinner.

And what if there is no heaven? What happens to the believers if they find out that god is just an idol people believe in to feel safe and dependent on something they can't understand? But this is all opinion based. You don't have to believe in god, and if you don't, then that's good for you. Same if you do. It doesn't matter if heaven exists or not, because a lot of today's people who don't believe in god learned it from their parents. Does being human make it so 'God' will bar someone from heaven because they've learned from their parents?

An atheist is an atheist because he too quest after God, not by believing in him but by disbelieving that God does not exist. May be in the end he would know God earlier than the theist and he too would go to heaven.
