Your right, that comment wasn't directed at anyone in particular.
They can coexist, as you see around you. There isn't a World War going on over christianity or aethism. So perhaps they can't coexist in one sense, but at least we aren't doing crusades or other religious wars.

Do you feel comfortable in the idea that an atheist who lives a good life will suffer eternal damnation? Certainly it must bother you that God sends good people to hell.

Yes, I am very comfortable with that idea. Every human being was given a chance to turn to God, so if they didn't do so, they are choosing to go to hell. I don't have proof that everyone was given a chance, so you can choose to believe me or not. Eternal damnation is the worst thing that it comes to, but if an aethist like walrus doesn't believe in god, that's his fault.
It does bother me that people will choose to go to hell, when it would be so easy just to be come christian. But there is no such thing as a good person, everyone has sinned and fallen short of the glory of god. So God doesn't send good people to hell, they don't exist.
But I am trying to get people's opinions, instead of debate, to the most I can, so I will stop there.
