try being a atheist for a whole day. do not believe in god and no you may pray but you can live your normal life no god talk just live your life without god being in it. if you can survive the whole day without saying a prayer or asking god for anything hey you win.

Perhaps challenge them to see the world through our eyes.

A better challenge might be to look into all the other active religions, and really think about why you find them unbelievable, aside from the fact that your holy book says they're false. Then realize all those religions feel the same way about yours. The only difference between an atheist and a christian or whatever, is that we just go one step further. More like a baby step if you factor in denominations of the same religion/personal relationship with a deity.

Too easy. Try the other way around.

Disbelief is a constant shadow of belief. Avoiding descending into the that death pit is a constant challenge for believers, and if you're an ex believer, you know that. As no one is born believing, every single one of us has experienced full disbelief.
Personally, as a fallen believer, I had little understanding of my former theism. YMMV. As someone who has never experienced belief, and that includes the vast majority of people who believed without understanding/ don't believe due to "lack of evidence", you will have no concept of belief in God, as is demonstrated ably by misunderstanding.
