If the believer were of some other religion this might not be the case and you might be better off depending on the atheist.
Odd, because how would a God who loves everyone equally take most of them to punishment? Besides, the Bible clearly states that if you don't follow this "God", you'll be sent to an eternal punishment. You know why that's funny? Because that mans that 70%+ of the ENTIRE Earth will be sent to hell by God. Do you really think that it's" just"? Or rather, do you think it's "equality" by God's behalf? Since Christians tend to think that God and the Bible are the most real of all religions compared to those who have other religions. Other religions don't exaggerate their beliefs like Christianity does. Christians exaggerate their religion to where they want everyone to follow them, and they tend to want to "save" them because a book tells them that if people don't follow God, they'll go to hell.
