Your opinions are of no concern to reality. My opinion can be that the sky is green, but the sky continues to be blue.
Whether or not atheists go to Hell solely for being atheists can only be an opinion, as we have zero way of knowing who is going/has gone to Hell. My self, along with many fellow Catholics, have the opinion that no, they do not.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
