Yes God Likes Atheists who don't believe in him but live in the mode of goodness for the simple reason that those who believe in him keep asking him for this that and the other like they go to a place of worship and ask ..God please make me rich so I win the lottery... God I want a good husband or likewise God I want a good wife ..God I want a baby boy ..God I want a baby girl .. God I want a good job with lots of money ...God I want THIS THAT AND MORE ...so they keep asking God but THE ATHEIST ask for nothing but as they live in the Mode Of Goodness automatically they get their just rewards and are happy. 
 
Like Krishna says ..do a good service without expectations and automatically you will be rewarded .. meaning no need to ask 

Like Guru Nanak says do :

SELFLESS SERVICE 

work on 

SELF REALIZATION 

and 

SELF SACRIFICE 

* THEN YOU WILL GET YOUR JUST REWARDS 

GOD LIVES IN THE HIGHEST STATE OF GOODNESS .

YOU ARE YOUR OWN GOD AS YOU ARE CREATING YOUR OWN REALITY ..YOUR LIFE ..BY LIVING IN THE MODE OF GOODNESS ONLY GOODNESS WILL COME ONTO YOU.

BY LIVING IN THE MODE OF GOODNESS YOU BECOME GOD LIKE .

GOD IS SAT CHIT ANAND MEANING ALL TRUTH PURE CONSCIOUSNESS AND ALL BLISS ...say no more
