Hi, while not wanting to offend anyone, the reasoning in Bos Law seems really flawed to me. First of all, according to your bible, you can´t claim to know what is in another persons head, since that would be practicing divination.
You guys want scripture:

Deuteronomy 18:10 "There shall not be found among you anyone who burns his son or his daughter as an offering, anyone who practices divination or tells fortunes or interprets omens"

And it is also a very weak argument. If someone disagrees with you you can´t just claim that the person doesn´t believe what he´s saying.
Like it or not, Atheists just don´t believe in god. They don´t feel god inside them and reject him, they simply do not believe in such a thing as gods. Atheists do not believe in allah or vishnu either, just like you don´t believe in all other "heathen" gods.

Not believing in god doesn´t make you a bad person, it just means you weren´t raised in a christian family. There is a lot of hate directed towards people with different opinions on this forum, and I just think that´s wrong.

If you really believe that atheists and "heathens" will go to hell for their beliefs, then feel free to feel sorry for them, and try and change their opinion through open communication.
But DON`T HATE THEM. Don´t call them scum and say they deserve an eternity of torment. Because they have not chosen their beliefs. Just like you, they are simply a victim of their surroundings, and their political, cultural and religious beliefs are too.

So try showing people a little love, because isn´t that the most noble thing in gods eyes?

Romans 12:10
"Love one another with brotherly affection [as members of one family], giving precedence and showing honor to one another."
