[Question: Atheists: How come you're not scared of hell fire?]
Answer:
Atheists would rather have their homosexual lustful sinful fun now, and worry about the punishment later. They live in the present, that's the problem... never thinking about what awaits them.

"Atheists would rather have their homosexual lustful sinful fun now"
I no lieks teh buttsecks, kthxbye.
Well, the big obvious one (and one that several people have mentioned, but I'll say it again anyhow):
Prove that Hell exists first, and then prove that it has all that fire n' brimstone (TM) that you people love to go on about...
Gays, atheists, catholics, the Democratic Party, communism, it's all the same, you know?
And Christians would rather have their homosexual lustful sinful fun now, and immediately beg forgiveness so they can pretend to be morally superior, brag about how their place in Paradise is secure, and then continue to do the same damn things all over again.

Answer: Are you kidding? I'm super-stoked for Ragnarok! Epic battles, Father Odin getting eaten by the giant wolf Fenrir, and hey, if you don't like it, you can just chill out in the tree of life. It's gonna be the best apocalypse ever .
Yeah, sometimes I lose rationality and let my emotions control me. Then I fear the constant suffering. But it's only a bit of time before I remember that a)hell doesn't exist, and b)I'd rather be there than anywhere near the omnibenevolent being that made it.
"They live in the present, that's the problem... never thinking about what awaits them."
The thought of a cold, lonely grave scares most people. Hence religion I guess.
"never thinking about what awaits them"
No, we have thought about it and quickly dismissed it as rubbish. Your religion is stupid and we do not buy it.
gay <> atheism (when I was much younger, some of my most promiscuous acquaintances were anglican priests)
hellfire is a myth sustained by Christists to keep order and bully everyone else.
Fail
Because I shall be saved from it by the Noodley Appendage of the all-powerful FSM and given a spot right next to the stripper factory, for my unwavering love of all things pasta and piratey.
(And all the strippers will look like Keira Knightly but with huge racks!)

If you remove the homosexual and punishment parts, I fully agree with this. I'm not intimidated by what dogmatic Christians say, and I don't think homosexuality is perverted or evil.
And most christians are too busy worrying about what everyone else is doing, to actually follow Christ's example and live the way he asked them to. So they're gonna be shocked when Jesus says "Sorry, don't know you" and throws them into hell.
How come you're not scared of hell fire?
One isn't scared of something that they don't even believe in.

So all atheists are homosexuals now, huh? When did that happen?
Counterquestion to theists:
Why don't you fear Godzilla? He's enormous, almost bulletproof, and he has that fire-breath thing. Seriously, why people aren't terrified that Godzilla is going to rise up out of the ocean and lay waste to the whole world just baffles me!
Unless of course you don't happen to believe in Godzilla, in which case, I suppose worrying about something you don't believe exists would be a little silly.
I'm an atheist in a heterosexual marriage that lasted for 45 faithful years, until he died. I think you're confusing religion with sexuality, and you know no good can come of that. Unless you worship your own dick, in which case carry on.
Are you scared of Ragnarök? Of the Duat, Osiris and the Assessors of Maat? Of the Flying Spaghetti Monster and his beer volcano?
All atheists are homosexuals in your fantasy world, Questionmark?
As there is no evidence for ANY gods, goddesses or other deities, the only thing we know is that we have the here-and-now. Why not enjoy it as much as we can, be as happy and friendly and loving as possible. Any just god or goddess ought to accept that as GOOD, and the unjust gods I don't want to appease anyway.
"lustful sinful fun" ? You sound almost envious, Questionmark...
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
