Those are 2 separate ideas and there is no reason they must be
linked. There could be a God and no afterlife or a afterlife and no
God; or neither could exist or both could.
If you are able to conceive a god without afterlife, it means you can
conceive a non Christian God, which is nice, but contradicts the main
atheist statements you already did in preceding conversations.
We might try to decide on a definition of "atheism", as that notion is
very unclear, and I have rarely obtain a definition on which atheists
agreed.
I use "God" in the greek sense of Truth (the one that we can search
about us, or hope or fear, in life and afterlife, whatever it is).
