Well I feel like if a Christian embraced the message of Jesus, that is not for a Christian to judge you, but God.

So I break it down to, if you as an Atheist are right, good on you . And if the Christian is right, they should just trust God.

Do you stop there & trust that God is just & not worry that he might torture ppl for all eternity for believing wrong thing?

I would say truly it is a worry for me too, yep. In my travels I have also met a lot of folks who have no exposure to religion

This is where I would say all people have crazy beliefs that are founded in faith. e.g. internationalist, communists, anarchist

But, I am really talking abt faith in the sense of believing 'in' things without evidence.

Then can I honestly ask, is there any philosophy or ideology that you take on faith? Human rights for example? That is a faith.

European human rights are a faith that all humans are actually WORTH equal no matter what. This is not able to be proven by fact

There's no reason to think we're worth anything except to each other. No facts needed to argue for a principle.
