I recently started a new job and I am having to hide my lack of beliefs. So far it hasn't been too much of a problem but I am hearing "brother Danny". You know the type of thing religious people say.
Hopefully it will not become a problem. I hopes are high for this job.
Anyone else have to hide your lack of beliefs at work?

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I don't hide or advertise my agnostic status at work or elsewhere. If someone asks, I will tell; however, I understand the challenges we face when dealing with believers. On another note: I sometimes use the terms 'brother' and 'sister', but only because I see us as human siblings.

I don't mind brother comments but If you react to it you may be invited to church

No, I don’t hide my lack of belief.

I understand. I don’t care about consequences, that’s not always a good thing. @Travel1
I have not “come out” to many of my friends or my very religious mother in law. I am a recent Agnostic/ Atheist and a recovering Christian. My best friend is the person who “saved” me 25 years ago. She is my children’s godmother and I’m afraid that if I tell her she will feel like she failed God somehow...
