    So, basically you are saying if you can prove that this supernatural place actually exists and you are doing so with solid, very researched evidence would atheists believe in a god? Personally, I would not jump to that conclusion. Proving a hell exists shows a hell exists. You would still need to prove that a god exists. There have been so many different religions make different claims about places similar to hell. It could be possible that it exists and yet a god does not. Now, a discovery of a hell would open the door to the possibility that a god may exist since it would be proving the supernatural.

    Alas, since there is no evidence of a hell then you are just wasting time pondering such things.

    Sure, if I found out hell exists and a simple recanting will keep me out - I'd do it.

    Also, if the earth was ripped asunder and fairies riding flying unicorns started shooting people with cats with laser eyes and demanded an ice cream cone or they would shoot me - I'd get them the cone.

    Not sure what that proves.

    It will be a cold day in hell before any one will prove Hell is real.

    i have no reason to believe stories written 2000 years ago when people didn't know much about the real world.

    No, because that would mean worshipping a highly immoral and despicable God. And I cannot only find it in myself to 'love' and 'worship' him beyond superficially, so he'll probably send me there anyways.

    You playing out your childish revenge fantasy on people who don't swallow the tripe you do, makes no impression on my opinions regarding made-up worlds.

    Apparently you do not realize that "your" perception of hell is not from the bible. You assume much knowing little which is quite evident.
