Carl Sagan's, "The Demon Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark".
Not exactly an atheist book, but it offers a very good mental tool kit of the best known method of differentiating fact from fiction.
The methods can be applied to any existential or supernatural claim (including the god claim) in order to determine which are most likely true, or most likely false

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
