Ok, mumble jumble aside, address the issue directly please. Is god all knowing or not? If so, then he knew I was going to turn atheist and thus will go to the christian hell. If he didn't, then he's not god and we need not worry.
How would I ever know if God was all knowing or not?

Christian doctrine specifically says that everyone is damned from the start, and it is only accepting Jesus Christ as one's personal savior will one be spared of eternal damnation.
Not
all Christian doctrine says this.

The fact remains that I'm an atheist.
Good. We cleared up the present moment, at any rate.

At this point, I only see 3 possible choices.
(1) God is all knowing, he created me anyway just so I could go to hell, and thus he does not love me unconditionally.
(2) God is not all knowing, he didn't know I was going to turn atheist, and thus he is not really god.
(3) God is all knowing, he created me knowing I would reject him when I turned 20, he loves me me unconditionally, and so there is no hell.
Lets analyze your conclusions.
(1) ...God does not love me unconditionally (IF He exists)
(2) God is clueless and thus a phony.
(3) God loves me unconditionally and thus there is no Hell.
I would go with # 3. Hell only exists for those who reject reality.
