Only evil people don't believe in Christ per Bible.

The original argument fails because

1) Not all strands (indeed most strands do not) of Christianity hold the bible to be literally true the only workable definition of a christian is that he or she believes in the Nicene creed.

2) You have not proved that you are not evil because you have not adequately defined evil (probably because it is a stupid concept anyway) in a way to differentiate it from the meaning written in the Greek of the New testament.

If you are going to argue your atheism then for fuck's sake know your facts or Christians will just pick you apart..

(bolded for emphasis)
Wise words, now you should re-think your definition of what a "Christian" is before you look all silly and stuff...
