Religion is the problem, not atheism.
Read an article in USA Today that in the US, atheists are as distrusted as rapists. I'll post the link later.
Where do they get their facts?
Sorry to ramble. I just needed to come to a place where you all GET IT.
Thanks for letting me vent! <3
Come and live in the UK, experience a truly accepting society for atheists.

On my way!
In all seriousness, I wonder why that is, though? Wasn't the UK once built on 'Christian principles?'
You're all so awesome, thank you for letting me vent! This place is a second home, at times.
Here's the article link I was talking about. It's not real recent, and frankly, it seems flawed, as many studies are...but, still...the results are the results.

Is the general public this obtuse?
Meanwhile, back at the ranch...prisons are stuffed with far more self-proclaimed Christians (not ''born again'' after they were convicted but before they went to prison) than atheists.
Oh yea.
