Yeah, I've gotten that one a few times... "I don't understand how you're so nice if you're an atheist." It practically bursts from people's pie-orifices when they learn I'm an outspoken (out-of-the-closet) atheist.
One of the reasons I'm growing my hair long again is that I get tired of being asked why I'm so clean-cut, when it's short enough that I can pass for "traditionally handsome", or whatever you want to call it; I guess we're "expected" to be socially-defiant outcasts or something.

A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
