Sick, but unfortunatly very true Angry , i still don't even understand why religion still exists! Science has proved that the flying spaghetti monster is as believable as any other religion

Playing it safe for now is really the best approach. There will be time to bravely "come out" as an atheist ... as AN UNSAVED HEATHEN... later when you are out of school and on your own. In this economy, this is no time for heroic rebellion. In the meantime, take this opportunity to study the Babble as every atheist really should. It will help in later debates once you do come out.

Don't test the limits as aggressively as I do. My purpose is satire and not to deceive, so I'm always over-the-top with plenty of "tells". Even still, it's surprisingly easy to fool Christians, even without intending to. I remember how one Christian posted that my posts were "inspiring". WTF? Another named "Elunico" actually PMed me and asked me which apologists I preferred. 

So don't think of this as being forced into an indoctrination camp. Think of it as a "field study" of the insanity of religion. You're like a biologist observing the curious behavior of animals or an anthropologist studying the primitive ways of some secluded culture. What you learn may be helpful to you to later debate religion intelligently.
