Angry Atheist is Angry [at Facebook theists]

Angry Atheist is Angry [at Facebook theists]
Far too often I see statuses on Facebook like this:
Quote:It's about time we stop telling God how big the storm is and start telling the storm how big our God is. Yea I did say our God but notice I didn't say our storm. We don't own the storm. God fights our battles, therefore, the battle doesn't belong to us
And at least 5 people liking it or posting comments about how they agree with the person who posted it.

Yet, when I posted this a few months ago:
Quote:For all those people who get offended at the GD word: Shut your goddamn mouth and mind your own goddamn business. It is just a goddamn word, goddammit!!!!!
Not only did I not get any "likes", what I did get were comments like this (NOTE: "tyedai" is my nickname):
Quote:...Uhh tyedai I think you may have went too far
Quote:You may think its funny or something to say things like you said but . . . Even if you have your account is set to only your friends access to your comments, you should still never post anything you wouldn't want your mother, DAD, Pastor, Grandparents, future employer, or maybe college entrance person to see. You never know who might see it despite your settings. Somethings are funny. Sometimes people take things out of context and twist them around. And its fine to have an opinion on anything and everything and even express it. But using language like you did is not called for. Language like that shows a lack of vocabulary and education. Both of which I know you have, so use them please.
Also, and I've said this in another thread, a couple of girls in my class threatened me.

So I just thought, "Fine. I won't do that anymore." And I haven't. And I've also come to ignore statuses like the one I mentioned. And other ones that I don't like, particularly ones pertaining to patriotism.




Basically, what's really irking me is that these goddamn theists can say whatever the fuck they want and no one says anything!!! Yet, I can't say anything because not only are most of my Facebook friends theists, but literally no one in my family knows that I'm an atheist (I've tried telling them before, but they refused to believe me so now I just humor them) and Facebook is the last place I'd want them to find that out from, IF they ever find out.

I really wish I could let these people know what I want to say, I mean it does say "What's on your mind?". However, seeing how I can't say what's on my mind because of the risks I would be taking if I do, I'm seriously considering unfriending family members and/or these preachy fuckers, which is basically all but about four of my friends, or just deleting my Facebook account altogether.
Although, I also have this idea of creating another account under a fake name. Dunno

What do you guys think? What should I do?
Don’t ask.
