In Australia,atheism is not a big deal,except for the religious fanatics who insists on wearing their religion on their sleeves.Most sane people avoid them.

If asked I say "I'm an Agnostic atheist". If asked to explain I then say "I do not believe in god(s) due to the lack of credible evidence." I do not argue with apologists.

That's PERFECT! I'm going to use that in future. To me that clearly implies "don't fuck with me!"

Min;I've just started reading 'Paul;Mind Of An Apostle' by A N Wilson and am loving it. Recommended. I guess you've already read it



In case you have not and for anyone else who is interested:


Quote:A.N. Wilson makes clear in this gripping narrative that Christianity, without Paul, is quite literally nothing. Jesus, with the layers of scholarship stripped away, is a fervent Jew who will lead his followers into a stricter, purer observance of Judaism; it is Paul who will claim divinity for him, who will transform him into the Messiah, center of an entirely new religion...more

Actually, no.

Maybe sometime I'll get back into a xtian phase. Right now I'm more interested in the OT. You know, the alleged "foundation" for xtian and islamic bullshit.

I would say extremely open when I can be. But sometimes I need to bite my lip, I mostly don't like to bring it up at work but if it does come up I would have no problem saying i'm an atheist. I am proud to be an atheist!

Still not aloud to tell my grandmother though...
Look to this day: For it is life, the very life of life. In its brief course lie all the verities and realities of your existence. The bliss of growth, the glory of action, the splendour of achievement are but experiences of time.

For yesterday is but a dream and tomorrow is only a vision; And today well-lived, makes yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well therefore to this day; Such is the salutation to the ever-new dawn!
-Kalidasa

Those who aren't afraid to admit it, and those who are scared of peer pressure etc, and hide their true beliefs.. There's nothing wrong with either, as sometimes it would be an advantage to not draw attention to ones self. Anyways, which kind are you?

I am rather blunt about being an Atheist.. Although it has undoubtedly caused problems for me.

Depends on who I'm around. Around my family, I'm a closet atheist. Around random people, I'm proud of my atheism.
What falls away is always, and is near.

Also, I am not pretending to be female, this profile picture is my wonderful girlfriend. XD

Militant atheist. Or Sith. Either one works.

What kind of atheist are you?
How do you do the things you do?
...
"Sisters, you know only the north; I have traveled in the south lands. There are churches there, believe me, that cut their children too, as the people of Bolvangar did--not in the same way, but just as horribly. They cut their sexual organs, yes, both boys and girls; they cut them with knives so that they shan't feel. That is what the Church does, and every church is the same: control, destroy, obliterate every good feeling. So if a war comes, and the Church is on one side of it, we must be on the other, no matter what strange allies we find ourselves bound to."

If someone asks i tell them,if there's a religious discussion i openly express my anti-theistic views.

In other words you could say i'm rather outspoken about my atheism.
