Maybe the Christians will take over. At least they won't kill you for being a Atheist.

Welcome.

I've encountered other atheists in Muslim majority countries before, mostly from the Middle East (where it seems to be a growing subculture).

Stay safe.

You are not paying attention:

Not only have Christians historically murdered people over religion, they still do it today.

I guess I live in a bubble here in the US. It is hard to imagine killing someone for not believing in an imaginary thing.

It makes me feel abnormal. But i do so to be safe in my country. So i am glad i joined this forum where i can share my views on religion and interact with like minded people. At last I am feeling normal.

Welcome. I hope you enjoy your stay  Smile
