An atheist does not believe in a Hell or other afterlife. Assuming this opinion is correct, an atheist does not go to Heaven/Hell after death - and neither does anyone else.
Theists believe in an afterlife. Some (like Christians, Jews and Moslems) believe in a Heaven and Hell, others believe in a continuing series of rebirths leading to some sort of reward.
For theists that believe in a Heaven/Hell there is an imposing list of does and don'ts that the believer has to comply with to "succeed". Most Heavens are exclusive to their particular sect's beliefs. These groups would see the majority of the human race going to Hell, atheists included.

Atheists believe that no one has a soul. Therefore atheists do not believe that they, or anyone else, will go to heaven. Of course, Christians, Jews and Muslims would probably arrive at the same answer for different reasons - you can not go to heaven unless you believe in God.
Answer:
The question is "can" atheists go to heaven, not "may". "May" would imply that someone would permit them in. The implication of "can" is equally that an atheist might reject the opportunity if it were presented. If there is a Christian style heaven, it would offer few attractions to the atheist - see Mark Twain's "Letters From the Earth" for a discussion of the shortfalls of that heaven. Twain's "Captain Stormfield's Visit to Heaven" offers a refreshing view of a heaven that would accept atheists (and any one or thing) else. The Moslem heaven of reclining on couches for eternity sounds a bit dull too. Perhaps the rollicking Norse heaven (even though it is relatively short term) would be acceptable. Assuming that such a place existed:
- Nobody knows the criteria for entry - every religion has different ones and many don't accept the validity of other religions criteria.
- Everyone is an atheist to someone's religion.
- Some god(s) have afterlives which would not appeal to many people
- Many atheists would not accept such an invitation as they see the god(s) as rather unpleasant and uncaring being(s)
Answer:
First you must prove that there is a heaven before you assume anyone is going there.
There is no such thing or place for atheists.
Answer:
If indeed there is a heaven meant for people who meet the qualifications, then many, many people will be surprised when they discover who gets in, and who does not. The more vocal and prideful the religious zealot, the bigger the surprise will be.

∙ 8y agoAs a christian i can say that... NO atheists will NOT go to heaven. They chose not to except God and that's a sin. Im sorry to say but when judgment day comes... all the christians will come in a group and on contact go up to heaven. But the atheists... however, will stand before God and have to suffer the pain and crying they will be in... they will be scared as heck.... and you know what's worse? THEY HAVE TO STARE AT US IN HEAVEN WHEN THEY GO DOWN TO HELL AND HAVE TO LIVE AND SCREAM IN THERE FOREVER. And as christians we will be happy, no fear in heaven with the holyness and trust of God. And when were done in heaven... God will create a new and improved Earth. In The Bible it says we will have powers like forming into different things and i don't know what other powers we will have there but i do know that we will be there for 1000 years then we will go up to the NEW heaven that God has created. So im sorry atheists but if you don't change and except God before you die... well that's your problem.
According to the New Testament:Hebrews 11:6 - But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.Revelation 21:8 - "But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death." [NKJV]

Ro 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Re 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
If you deny God you are lost, but God gives each and every person a chance:
Tit 2:11 ¶ For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men. A:There is no proof of God and so atheists may be correct in assuming that the answer is no.
Also, there are many gods in different religions, each proclaiming what happens to people after they die. Either one or none of them (but not all) can be correct.
The bottom line is we do not know.
Answer
New Testament: By God's grace, everyone is forgiven.

Atheist generally don't believe in many things, but the only "for certain" common denominator is the lack of belief in a god or gods. The overall list would include:
No god, no Jesus, no heaven, no hell, no "salvation", no soul, no life after death, no magic

∙ 6y agoThe only way to know the future is if there is a god who is able to control it, therefore this question has to be a theological one -- atheists shouldn't have much to say on the subject. Unless they think of themselves as gods?
As a christian, I believe that God is gracious and He reveals himself even in this world. Some people choose to reject him for various reasons. They choose to stay away from Him. Others, to the contrary, respond favorably to the evidence of His existence and want to be closer to God, to live in communion with Him.
According to Christian theology, in the eternal state, both categories of people will get their hearts' desires: those who seek God will get to be with Him forever in a new Creation called paradise, whereas those who don't want anything to do with Him will also get their hearts' desires by being separated from Him for eternity. Unfortunately, by rejecting God -- who is the source of all good things -- atheists choose distress and suffering, isolation and hopelessness (in other words, hell).

∙ 8y agoIronically, this is one of the things that both Atheists and Believers generally agree upon; Atheists will not go to heaven. Christians and Muslims generally argue that because Atheists do not believe in God, they will not enter heaven and instead go to Hell. Atheists argue that heaven and hell are non-existent entities and, therefore, a person could not actually go there.
Some more liberal religious individuals believe that God will allow Atheists who are good people to enter heaven, but this is a minority opinion.

∙ 6y agoHell is a product of religious belief and folklore. Its description is inconsistent and ever-changing and the concept is in conflict with a loving, just and benevolent god. It is commonly described as the abode of an evil supernatural entity, a fiery underground place in which the dead continue to exist and suffer eternal punishment for sins committed during life. Since all religious belief is a product of human imagination and speculation no one will ever know if such a place exists. Atheists lack any belief in gods. That in and of itself is not a bad thing and not a reason to be condemned to eternal punishment if any such place exists. No one will ever know since hell lives only in belief.

Can you see God when you die?
There is no evidence for heaven, so it depends on faith. Christians believe you will go to heaven and see God. Atheists believe there is no heaven and no God.
Do atheists go to heaven if they lived an unsinful life?
If they believe the heaven they also believe The God indirectly. So, if any one believe and do go good definitely they will enter the heaven without doubt. Any how its the absolute decision and control of God. God knows well.
Where do you go when you die non-Catholic?
A:The Catholic view is that anyone can go to heaven if they die perfect, believing in Jesus and repenting of their sins. On this view, non-Catholics have a much harder time of it, as they are without the sacraments, particularly the sacrament of penance, wherein their sins are forgiven, and the sacrament of the Eucharist, wherein Our Blessed Lord gives them the grace and strength through His Own Body, to make our way through this life. The Catholic view would seem to rue out any possibility of non-Christians, especially atheists and agnostics of entering heaven. However, Cardinal Pell, one of the most senior figures in the Catholic Church, recently expressed the view that even atheists will go to heaven if they have led good lives. Since atheists neither believe in Jesus nor seek forgiveness of their sins, this is a major change of direction if formally adopted by the Catholic Church. Of course, atheists have no expectation of going to either heaven or hell, as they believe they do not exist and therefore no one can ever go to heaven or hell.
Do atheists have the last laugh since Christians will have to live with atheists in heaven since they have to forgive atheists or be condemned to hell?
That isn't how it works. Christians do not forgive atheists into heaven. Besides, Christians are to forgive everyone who does wrong against them. And your just being an atheist is not doing something against a Christian. It is your heavenly Father who will forgive you. But, only if you ask Him to. And, you should learn about God, and the great sacrifice He made for you by sending His only Son to earth to die for your sins. When you repent, all your sins will be forgiven by God. Whether or not you believe in God, He loves you, and He knows you. There will be no atheists in heaven. Eternal live is given only to those who believe. You have to believe that God exists and He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Atheists will be condemned for their unbelief and be receive everlasting death.
In hell does man have body soul and spirit?
The first issue to decide is whether there really is a hell. Atheists say there is no heaven and no hell. Jews say there is a heaven, but there is no hell. Christians and Muslims say there is a heaven and there is a hell.If in fact there is a hell, those who go there can not have thir earthly bodies, because we know without doubt that they stay in the grave.
Where do atheists go to meet singles?
Church obviously.
Is it common Christian belief that all atheists go to hell?
Many Christians reserve the entry to heaven to those who believe their specific sectarian beliefs and in doing so consign to hell all others. Atheists, to them, would go to hell along with assorted other Christians, Hindus, Buddhists. Some waffle and say that "all good people" go to heaven. This could include atheists and other nonbeliever's, members of other religions etc. who lead good lives.(that is a LIE!!!)My Answer: All people who believe that God the Father sent Jesus Christ, His Son, to die on the cross to save all people from there sins, will go to Heaven...and all who don't believe this will go to Hell. Faith is not just believing in God, Faith is believing in God and trusting in His Promises because even the Devil and demons believe in God, but they weren't saved. The Devil, Lucifer at the time, was very high ranking in God's Kingdom before Lucifer wanted to become greater than God, Lucifer sinned and didn't repent, so God cast Lucifer out of Heaven.
Do Atheists go for a biblical role?
No. Atheists do not seek any biblical role. They have no interest in religious writings nor having any role in them.
What happens to people after they die if they did not believe in the correct religion - for example if Christianity is true are atheists reborn or do they go to heaven or hell?
It all depends on the religion. Christians believe that if you have not accepted Jesus Christ as your lord and savior and given your heart over to Him, and been baptized, you go to Hell when you die.
Where will atheists go if they do not go to heaven or hell?
It depends on how it is read:What do Atheists believe will happen to them?Most Atheists are monists, believing that a person is only their physical nature, whereas most Theists are dualists, believing that a person has both a physical nature and a spiritual component. Monists argue that the brain is the source of a person's personality and essence and, therefore, when a person dies, and the brain begins to shutdown and decompose, that is the end of that person. (This is much the same way that dualists would conceptualize the destruction of a robot.) Dualists argue that a person's personality comes from an ethereal soul which can leave the body and go to an afterlife. Atheists who are monists take the monist position, while Atheists who are dualists (most commonly Buddhist Athiests) believe in whatever afterlife their tradition teaches.What do Theists believe will happen to Atheists?This entirely depends on the religion and even on the Theist himself. Most religions argue that Atheists will go to Hell or some other place of torture, but other religions do not believe Atheism to be sinful or to warrant pain if the Atheist is a good person.
