Even with as misunderstood that we are, I wear my atheist bracelet loud and proud. I don't wear it for attention or to "be like the jeebots " but because other atheists out there should know that theyre not the only ones dealing with stupid shit.

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

Churches are very comfortable with lying to their sheeple, they've been doing it for a very long time. It's really a no-brainer for them to say whatever crap that comes to mind in regards to atheists.

Modern Christian facts:
Atheists are bad for god
Jebus rode a veloceraptor on his days off
All creatures great and small slept peacefully on a boat once
Gays are evil heathens
Murder if OK if in the name of {enter god name of choice}
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

Having slaves is OK.
Beating your slaves is OK. (As long as you do it the right way and it takes a few days for them to die from it.)

Usually with ignorance comes religion and with religion comes intolerance. That's probably what happens in the US, mainly in the south... Seriously, distrusting atheists more than rapists? Get your fucking facts straight.

You think atheists are misunderstood...? The gods get it bad.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
