Should I allow obnoxious, fundemental believers to vomit their nonsense on a regular bases all over me when I can't even mention how cool science is?
Should I be kind and polite?
Right now, I feel as though I have no patience or sympathy for the outspoken believer. I find it best to alienate them all from my life. I'm interested in open conversation, not listening to a Sunday morning sermon. I can keep my atheism to myself, if you can't keep Jesus to yourself, then I say good riddance to you.
I will shut down your beliefs faster than you can say "the power of Christ compels you."
Perhaps I'm wrong, but I'm tired of religion and would like to enjoy a day with a person who doesn't feel the need to save me. I just need to make more friends who are more interested in being human than being religious.
Your not wrong at all. I find it very obnoxious that they insist on respect for their beliefs but don't do the same for others.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
