Amusing Responses You Got From People When You Came Out About Being An Atheist.

I thougt It would be interesting to see some of the more comical responses people have received upon coming out. I'll start things off with my favorite.

I was about 16 and a guy in class found out that I didn't believe in god and he came up to me and asked

Boy: "So do you really not believe in god"

Me: "No."

Boy: "So.... You worship the devil?!"

I got this one in one form or another many times..... Gotta love the bible belt! :)

Heh, never got that response yet. I probably will soon.

Anyway, one time in school, my History teacher asks with a show of hands who believes in God.

I'm the only one who doesn't raise his hand.
One kid goes "You're an ATHIEST!?"
I say "Yes."
His response?
"FAG!"
Everyone laughs, and I pinch the skin between my eyebrows.
Doesn't suprise me man. I can't believe your teacher asked that question though. He had to know he was opening someone up for that one. Hey, it could be worse, could have been the teacher that said it I suppose....
Yeah, he was describing Communism when he asked it... it was pretty funny now that I look back at it.

This one kid, after I told him I was an Athiest, asked: "So if god came out of nowhere, slapped you in the face, and told you to believe, would you?"

me: "Well, that hasn't happened now, has it?"

kid: "........"

LOL!

 

Brain fry him:

 

Q:  Is god all-powerful, so much so there is nothing he can't do?

A:  Yes.

Q:  Can god make a stone so heavy that even he can't pick it up?

Homophobic slurs and atheist discrimination mixed together.
Of course - where do you suppose the vast majority of homophobia COMES FROM in the first place???

"where do you suppose the vast majority of homophobia COMES FROM in the first place???"

 

BINGO!! :)

True that!
One of my favorite quotes from Hitch's memior: ""What is it you most dislike? Stupidity, especially in its nastiest forms of racism and superstition."
When talking to my dad:
-Dad, I have a friend who is an atheist.
-Well, he surely doesn't even believe in his own mother.
-I am an atheist and I believe in my mother.
-No you're not.
-...
LoL. Sounds like a conversation one would have about coming out about being gay.

Are the media too giddy over the Pope?

With all the media attention the on the Pope, important stories are being missed, human rights violations, Monsanto protection act, Russia march to blasphemy laws, and of the big story this week did Harry Potter vanquish dementors?See More
