I want to ask you a serious question now. When you have children some day, being the "hardcore" atheist you are, will you keep them from searching for God themselves. Will you give them the option from childhood to have a chance and hear of Jesus, read the Bible, and pray? Or will you put down your atheistic dictatorial foot and stiffle any such thought of "religion"? Will you fill your children's minds with the poison of science and declare to them, " Hear O' my children, there is no God, no God but the one inside yourselves"? You may choose to believe in nothing, if you are wrong then you will have literal "hell" to pay for it. Will you enforce that on your children too? Your wife/domestic partner? You see, if im wrong, then when i die nothing happens. But if you are wrong, when you die you will have to try and explain why you chose not to believe, why you turned your back on your upbringing, why you cursed God and chose death. Is that really something you want to gamble when another's soul is in your hands? Think about that long and hard. It's not a fear tactic....it is fact that science cannot and will not ever be able to prove if their is an afterlife...you are betting a lot on a practice (science) that time and again proves itself flawed and fallible....
