I don't comment, "like", or anything on any religious posts, friends or family make. If anyone is too over the top, I unfriend them, or hide them. Same with politics. I would like to be more open, but I tend to keep it friendly and superficial.
I have considered making a separate facebook page where I could be more open with my atheism.
My problem is that I come from insane, close minded people who I have the misfortune to love so I don't wan to cull them from my friend's list. Sometimes they post the stupidest things and on occasion they actually embarrass me.
I made the mistake of liking and commenting on a few atheist facebook sites and one of my relatives followed me into the discussion. She did such a poor job defending her views that several people thought she was a troll
