Atheism teaches there is no god. According to atheism, men must then live this life without any reference to or engagement with a divine agent. The atheist then lives his life on Earth without God. Christianity teaches a major punishment in hell is the absence of the presence of God.
Atheism and Christianity may be compared in one manner as follows -
The falsity of atheism requires that man lives his life on Earth without God.
The truth of Christianity requires that men in hell live without God.
Atheism is then a type of Christian hell on Earth.
But as hell on Earth is a life of sin and sin leads to hell, atheism requires that men live a false life of hell on Earth as a preparation for the real Christian version of hell in the next life.
Conclusion - Atheism is a participation in the Christian reality of hell in this life and hell in the next life.
