atheism everyone have giving me a hard time about it

well I really believe a persons beliefs and disbeliefs are a personal thing and should stay that way, I’m a believer, but in no way would I violate your right to not believe unless you attempted to criticise my personal faith, best thing to do is keep it to yourself, or others may think you’re trying to convert them, and they in turn should’nt try to convert you, If you ever change your mind about your mortality It’ll be in your own time , in your own way, everyone should be openminded about what this life’s all about, and not slam the door on other possibilities. Franklin

Well, as an atheist myself, what I do to shut people up, is to not tell them I’m an atheist in the first place.

im an athiest and lately everyone have giving me a hard time about it. what should I do?

Nothing really… they can’t prove they’re right, and you can’t prove you’re right. So you’re all on even ground… I guess you can remind them of that.

One thing I’ll add is that things do get better. I quit believing in God when I was 12. Everyone was dismissive and said that it was just a phase and that I’d “come around” when I got older. When you get older most people will take you more seriously.

“Many of them care where you spend eternity…not a bad thing at all…obviously well intentioned, be gracious.”

amblessed, so I take it that an atheist trying to de-convert a christian is OK with you. I mean, they are well-intentioned. They just don’t want too see the other person spending their lives wrapped up in guilt and fear over an afterlife that doesn’t exist. Is that a bad thing for the athiest to do? The christian should just be gracious, and not express their opinion, right?

I’d say no matter what happens, never be rude to someone preaching in your face. Being rude (like telling someone to F-off) gives us atheists a bad image.

‘Hard time’ is not nice…! I know what you mean; I do not particularly believe the things that many people around me choose to believe. I came to an other conclusion about religion than they did and people find that sometimes hard to accept and blame me for having my views. But I can not lie to myself about these things; they are too important to me.

Funny thing is, that sometimes I think that many religious people do not really believe in God so much themselves. But they feel that they can not make the step to give it all up. Or they do not even know that they CAN make the step. Some plainly wished they were in your position and envy you for it.

Luckily, it is only a very small proportion who think that I should go to Hell for my views. But it is not nice to hear people say these things. ‘hard time’ is right.

Be yourself! It is important.

well im a proud athiest and quite simply, tell them to fck off they have there beleifs, you have yours what you beleive in doesnt affect there life unless there stubborn and stupid religiouse fanatics who beleive everyone should beleive in what they beleive in tell them your proud of your religion, its what you beleive in and that you couldnt care less what those other people beleive in because you dont beleive in it tell them its pointless arguing and that if they dont respect you for what you beleive in tell them to shut up or fck off sometimes the only way to get religious people off your back is to be firm tell them your proud in what you beleive in, you dont give a sht about what they beleive in and if they dont like you they can simply fck off

Ignore them. Its your beliefs not theirs. Why shouldnt you give them a hard time about believing in God or whatever. Just tell them how you feel and if they dont respect that, forget them

Don’t let people bug you about your faith or, in this case, lack of faith. Tell them that this is your journey to take and you will be influenced by who you want to be influenced by… so bugging you about it won’t do any good. Still be in good spirits about it though. In some cases, the people are doing it because they care, and they want you to have the same happiness or feelings they do. :)

Tell them that it’s your belief and if they don’t like it they can just leave you alone.

Many of them care where you spend eternity…not a bad thing at all…obviously well intentioned, be gracious.

tell them to shut up. it is your religion, or a lack of one I guess. ahaha and your life, so ignore them

atheism is when u don’t believe in anything, basically having no religion, it’s yur life tell them to get off yur dck lol
