Yeah, I guess that does seem the case but I just don't understand why? Why is not believing in god or believing god such a big issue in America?

Its so odd and interesting how different people are brought up. I've even heard some religious people in America think Atheists have no morals and some religious people in America have never even met Atheists.

Its just so hard to imagine at how different there situation is compared to mine.

If someone had told me when I was younger that some people had never talked to an Atheist before I think I would of laughed in their face or thought they were joking.

Thank you I think Wink

Wow, so it is seriously like that over in the states? I couldn't imagine it. When I was in orlando it seemed fine but mind you I was just there because of the theme parks and I never told anyone I was an Atheist because no one asked.

And my mind was on just eating as much food as possible and going on as many rides as possible before I had to go, it was defiantly at that moment not thinking of how or why I was an atheist or god or religion of any sort.
