No, if God is real and all of us atheists are wrong,will we still go to heaven because...?
If hell is supposed to be the worst place imaginable, wouldnt sending an atheist to heaven be the worst place to send them? Constantly surrounded by christians running around talking about god and praying and just being christians.....that would suck

It is hard for a non-believer to understand that what you enjoy in this life is provided by God. ALL good things come from God. The air you breathe, food, water, shelter, jobs, income, family and friends, hope, love, light, consciousness, free will...all of what is.
Take all that away and you have the beginning of an understanding of hell. A place where there is no justice, hope, goodness, love, or life...in essence, no God.

Fortunately, heaven is no more real than the Elysian fields of Greek mythology

It's actually theologically valid to consider Hell a form of mercy, because for one who truly hated God, it would be less suffering than an eternity in the direct presence of God.
That said, atheism itself is not a guarantee that one is going to Hell. That gets into some very individualized territory having to do with what one does in life, what one is genuinely aware of, what one has the genuine capacity to understand, etc. God knows one's heart better than any human ever could, and judgment is given accordingly.

In heaven there won't be preaching there will be no telling people about God because everybody will know him and love and respect him.
However those that go to hell are going to have to listen two people that thought they were Christians still screaming preaching in their ear for all eternity while they stand there burning!

The Bible doesn't say we go to heaven, so no, you won't be going there.

This is a silly question. You assume the fearmongers are right, and all atheists are already condemned. That is nonsense. I believe we are all judged on how we lived our lives, what we did to make the world a better place, even if those ways were very small.

God is loving, forgiving, and merciful, an He is the final judge. It seems to me that if an atheist doesn't want to be in Heaven surrounded by love, then God would respect those wishes.

"You don't understand Christianity." -@Jiraiya The Gallant
In Christianity, you can be the most vile scum the planet has ever seen, but if you accept Jesus as your Lord and savior a millisecond prior to death, you spend eternity in heaven.
In Christianity, you can be the most beneficial person the planet has ever seen, but if you don't accept Jesus as your Lord and savior a millisecond prior to death, you spend eternity in hell.
That is the message of Christianity.

You don't understand Christianity.
Buy yourself a Holy Bible and start by reading the New Testament (Matthew Mark Luke and John Gospels)
John 3:16-18
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.
