If you are an Atheist: How would you react tomorrow if it were conclusively proved that there were a God? (You know, he descends from heaven and says to live like X translation of the Bible says.)

I'm curious to see what your answers to this are.
You left out ..... agnostic..... which may describe me. I have never subscribed to a "belief" in God as presented by organized religions of any stripe. As a matter of fact ..... I don't know ..... and none of you do either. If the scenario you present should occur ..... I'd then know the truth. You may believe you "know" just as others of many of the "faiths" practiced around the world believe they "know" .... or the atheists who absolutely disbelieve. I would be very satisfied to "know" the truth of the matter...... and let the chips fall where the may.

I'm politically incorrect and damn well satisfied to be so. Gummer
