Believe me, I'm well aware of that now. But at the time I thought I was the only one who wasn't experiencing the things I was supposed to. I assumed I was the only one who just felt like he was talking to himself during prayer.
It's never easy to admit you've been duped...but once you realize the truth, it's easy to walk away and not look back. My hope is that, as we become more enlightened, people will realize that religion is a myth that needs to be discarded in order for humanity to focus on the things that are really important, not only for us, but for future generations.
....it turned out there was a God and all that stuff in the Bible was true?
Finding out most of the world's population is going to be tortured for all eternity - not my idea of entertainment. I'm not sure what exact disorder you need to have for that to be funny, but I'm guessing it's related to killing puppies and kittens as a child.

Depends on which brand of the Christian God turned out to be real. There are so many different contradictory ways to get in to heaven that I'd need more detail to answer.
I am not either of your targeted group, but I still wonder: What are you going to do? It is not within God's Plan that we judge one another, nor that we antagonize non-believers. Are you demonstrating Christ's love with your post?
Tend not to others, you have enough work of your own.

Oh, I'd have enormous fun hiding behind god's throne and giggling as Christians like Campbell and Allen came forward with huge expectant grins on their faces and watching their jaws drop as god said to them...'Depart from me for I never knew you'.
Just picture it for a moment...I bet it makes you smile.

It made me smile. I wish I could find a skit I wrote wherein the atheists up before God had to admit that they had been wrong and they now believed.
"Ok, under the 'last shall be first' clause, you can go straight in...hang on you Christians, not so fast. First you have to be tested in the fire as per Paul to see whether what you built is true..."
As to the OP, it is a sterile question as asking me what if it turned out that the world was flat and the sun actually went around the earth.' It is so clear the god of the Bible is not believable that it ain't gonna happen.
It's easy...the bible god does not exist. Just because people claim something happens...doesn't necessarily mean it actually happens or that it's true.
But, we have to test what people say, becasue sometimes people are the only witnesses to an event. Otherwise why have witnesses in a court of Law? So, there is some value to what people claim they saw.
God, the bible and the "stuff" found therein are true. And it is not funny! God is going to destroy those evil people.
While people like you laugh, point, cheer and watch with a manical gleam in your eyes I'm sure.... Which would also prove conclusively that you were worshipping the wrong god should something that impossible actually happen.
But let me get you to take a quick peak out of your box... What are you gonna do when you die, approach the pearly gates and find a giant elephant with six arms waiting to lead you to your next incarnation...?
