Is there an Atheist scorekeeping system?

Christians who are working to convert hapless sinners like me tell me they earn heavenly rewards for the souls they convert to their religion. What do the atheists gain from all the hard work they put in to converting people to Atheism? Some have told me it is about a world of freethinkers as they continue their campaign to be sure my freethinking conforms to the Atheist Standards. Do they earn a higher place in the club for their efforts? Something like gaming levels? What?

    Yeah, there's a point system, and the more conversions you make the less anyone cares.

    It's a lot like the point system for trolls, I'm sure you're familiar with it.

    We dont earn points, its just if we help you figure out the way the universe is set up and you end up in what we call heaven, you thank us personally when you get there. I guess if you convert some weak individual to atheism you get to high five each other in hell or they are really really going to be pissed off at you. And the term "freethinkers" is so ridiculous...you haven't had a free thought in years. You conform to your religious dogma as much as any hyper bible thumper. I guarantee you, right now at this very moment as read this sentence, you are reacting exactly like any other closed minded person would..exactly.

    I think we all experience some sort of satisfaction when we can get someone else to agree with our point of view. Just like Christians are "well meaning" in their efforts to convert, atheists are also well meaning. The difference being that Christians want you to learn to think like them, while atheists want you to learn to think for yourself.

    There is a club? Maybe that's why I've never heard of this "system". But then again, most of my friends are religious so it makes sense.
