RE: Question for Atheists: Is coming out as an atheist as hard as coming out as gay?
October 1, 2014 at 10:47 am
That really depends on the situation. If I was still a die hard christian, but came out as gay, I would argue that you can still be a gay christian. Jesus said that anyone who breaks the least of these laws will be called least in heaven, but you still get into heaven. So according to Jesus, I can still get into heaven even if I'm in love with a man.
So with being gay at least there's something in the bible that can help. Being atheist I think would be harder, unless your community is more moderate or liberal. My parents aren't christian, so I didn't get ostracized when I came out.
I'd just say it depends.
