Another thing to keep in mind:

1. What do the Christians lose if God doesn’t exist? Nothing.
2. What do the atheists lose if God does exist?

Everything.

Ehmm... I really don't get what you're saying here. If God doesn't exist it seems to me Christians loose everything. If there's no God then there's probabably no heaven. It seems to me if you felt your whole life you were being guided by God and then you find out he doesn't exist you seriously doubt yourself. Away is your purpose you thought you had.

And if an atheists finds out there is a God? He looses everything? I don't believe in God but if for some reason I change my mind I loose everything? I think most Christians will say I've finally seen the light. So I'm not loosing anything. I'm gaining a whole lot!

All he is trying to say is that even if by chance we are wrong in that Christ is the only way, we will die and simply end up like everyone else. Indifferent because we are worm food. If you are wrong, you will have an eternity to think about that.

Just like zombie, so many think that it is absolutely unloving of God to force Christ to be the only way. They don't see that He had paved our way through the blood of His only begotten son. Those like him think that God owes him salvation if He were real, but that is a choice that everyone must make.

You just have to be careful not to reject Christ because you don't want Him to be real, rather than simply just don't buy into all of this. No one is forcing anything, it has always been a choice.
