Does anyone else struggle with hating religion? It is a daily struggle, letting go of hate, as I understand its hypocritical. I consistsntly feel like the black sheep in my community, in my family and amongst my friends. I consistantly find myself hiding or diminishing my beliefs to make others feel better.

I do my best not to hate anything and I direct my mind away from "hate" if I find that I can dwell there. Do not give these things opportunity to thrive. Your thoughts are you. They become you.

I can understand your hate, and I think it must be incredibly difficult for non-believers in the US to cope with all the religious nonsense, especially now that the religious nutjobs seem to be gaining the upper hand on so many fronts.

Get rid of the hate, it harms you. Can you link up with other atheists?

I think she is actually saying that she finds it difficult to hate religion, not that she does hate it.

Okay, this is a little different.

I fucken hate the occults. All of them. The Christian's, Jews, Muslims, Hindes...

Girl, as you age your gonna get ugly, fight a biological clock and die. Along the way, you can watch it happen to the people you love.

As they suffer watch them pray and beg to a non existent god.

Always keep in mind if the occults hadn't brainwashed society, it is likely we would have cured the human condition by now. If people didn't believe in heaven, they would fight death.

Occults are causing you to suffer in a much greater way than most atheist pussys will give them credit for.

Now use your inner Darwin. Go all Darth Maul on their shit.

Don't be the normal pussy atheist, who just accepts them for being idiots. Don't accept it. Feel and nurture that hate in you.

Get pissed. Get fucken angry.

Now, go fight a good fight.

Start a subtle conversion of their flock.

Weapons come in all forms, but knowledge masked with a smile is likely the most effective.

Go save a life.

Challenge their beliefs in heaven and you fortify a fight against mother nature.

No. I'm not usually in a situation where the people around me are so entrenched in religion where they can't stop talking about it. Even if it's in passing I just overlook it, and it passes, then it's on to the next conversation. Everyone and their situation are different though.

I don't really talk to very many people about the fact I am not religious. For me religion and politics are out of bounds for topics of disussion with family as we have zero points of agreement.

@Kc2222 hard question. Yes in a way. For a true discussion both sides need to be willing to be convinced of the validity of the opposing opinion. For both of these topics I don't see anyway to be convinced there is a personal god or most of my families political views are correct- so I don't talk to them about it. I come here!

@Kc2222 I understand the frustration of feeling hidden. Good Luck and nice to meet you!

How so do you diminish your beliefs?

Im an atheist, but the best people ive known in life are Christian. I tell people that im an atheist but have Christian principles.

@Kc2222 I get that - the finest people ive known in life, my parents, certain friends and neighbors, some teachers ive known - all are protestant Christians. Yeah they are wrong about God and creation, afterlife...but they are loving, giving, good people.
