The problem is, that we get theists here almost daily, posing as atheists and asking what they think are 'gotcha questions', like the one in your OP. The point is, that there is no need to have 'as an atheist' in your question. Atheism only concerns a single position on a single claim. It is not a worldview, dogma, has no doctrine, or no leaders telling us what our position should be on any subject. My goals in my life are completely unrelated to my disbelief in the existence of gods. 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.

Atheist Forums Hall of Shame:
"The trinity can be equated to having your cake and eating it too." ... -Lucent, trying to defend the Trinity concept "(Yahweh's) actions are good because (Yahweh) is the ultimate standard of goodness. That’s not begging the question" ... -Statler Waldorf, Christian apologist 
I don't have any major goals at the moment, for now I'm working on me. Get fitter, healthier and hopefully learn a few things. Then its time to re-asses and go from there.
