I've run into this with my dad. He knows I don't believe at all and he's fine with that. Tell him I'm an atheist and he'll go bug shit! Big Grin

I think it goes back to the bullshit the christers keep pulling that all atheists claim there is no god.

Still, it's better than my step-moms views. She calls everyone who's not a christer, theist or not, atheists. Big Grin I like the woman, especially since dad would have pined away into an early grave without her, but she's bat-shit crazy!
