Optional Answer: Why should I have to go SOMEWHERE to get an answer from something that is supposed to be EVERYWHERE?

 

Apparently these dips can't conceive the idea that something that is everywhere is actually NOWHERE.  [shrug]

Oh thats easy... they are abdicating responsibility for the consequences of their belief by being able to say "the priest/minister/rabbi/imman told me so". Its an easy life being able to blame someone else for everything....

About the worst response I have gotten when telling a christian that I am an atheist was;

 

"I am so, so sorry for you"!! :(

 

That person was my own Mom!

Well, when you stare at people while wearing Joker makeup, can you blame them for questioning your morals?

I don't think I ever really "came out". My friends and family just figured it out themselves. I didn't even know my little sister knew that I was an atheist until this past summer. We were in line for a ride and she says there was a book sale, so I go "Book sale? Where?" and then she goes "Well, it's a Christian book sale. As an atheist, you don't like that crap." And she proceeded to giggle. xD

And my friends really don't care. I don't really think many other kids my age care either. I was in a pissy mood one day, and one of the guys who had a locker beside me goes "I love Jesus!" and then the guy to the other side of me says "Me too!" So I said "Jesus isn't real." One of the guys goes "You don't believe in Jesus?! o:" And then my best friend comes up beside me and goes "She's an atheist. 8|" Never had a problem with them before or after that.

I was told "you don't believe, because you want to do what you want to do".  WHATEVER!

My sister who I had been close to, refuses to speak to me. I refuse to compromise and never hide it. All religion is EVIL. I'm a Buddhist but it truly is not a religion. Buddha didn't believe in god and the Dalia Lama does not either.

I used to be an ordained minister and an opening conservative fundamentalist Christian. I forget how it came up but I told a friend of my sister's I was an atheist. She just said "WHAT!!??" and sat there for about 30 seconds with her mouth open, stunned. The expression on her face was priceless.
