Yeah. Real Atheists don't flip flop and convert when they are in trouble.

Of course not! For a real Atheist there is nothing to convert to!

Actually, you would be suprised. People who become atheists do so because they got picked on in high school, for an example. Rummage through an atheist's emotional baggage and you will find a pile of leftover teenage angst, a few cases of repressed rage at mommy and daddy, and an overpowering urge to feel superior wrapped around a stupendous amount of self-loathing.Its pretty easy to be an atheist when you are in your teens and 20's. Mostly because of the reasons I mentioned and because they want to rebel against the community, society or their family so they become the opposite of what they are.But I knnow quite the few cases when a person, that had close-death experience or one of their relatives did, begins to beleive in God, higher power and afterlife. so, really atheism is a pretty empty and shallow belief. I would like to see a person 5 minutes away from death and say ''there is no afterlife''.
Religious people on the other hand are ready to go trough everything for their belief and stick to it till death. Jews and Christians are best example of this.

you describe pretty good what i mean with "not a real Atheist"
and of course religious people stick to their belief, because it's easy. they can commit whatever "sin" they want and go to confession and then everything will be forgiven and forgotten after 3 hail marys. they also believe they go to heaven when they die, so they don't care if life is hard for them, they don't care to enjoy living because everything will be fine later. And religious people commit crime, because they don't respect laws that have been made by people.
see? i can generalize and twist and talk in absolutes as well! 
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
- George Orwell, ‘1984’
