Sure I can. Difference is, I don’t belittle, scorn nor condemn those who choose to believe in Christianity (or any religion in general). I just tell them it’s not my thing and they’re free to continue it being their thing, whereas something’s “wrong” with me for not believing in what they believe.

My family has drifted apart for other reasons so I no longer spend Christmas day with them, but before we all went our separate ways, my mother really struggled with my atheism at Christmas time. She’d call me up to tell me about the plans for Christmas and then ask if I even wanted to be there since the day held no me…
How ironic (and/or hypocritical) that people who tout this religion to be about “love and tolerance” can’t show that same love or tolerance to those who don’t share their beliefs - even towards their own flesh and blood. My own peeps trip about my atheism too, which is why I get more love around this time of year from…
You know those signs or bumper stickers or whatever that say “Jesus is the reason for the season”? It’s both literally and figuratively untrue!
Oh and when they ask you why you’re celebrating Christmas if you don’t believe in the divinity of Jesus Christ, just remind them that Jesus wasn’t born on the 25th of December. That date was chosen 300 years later by the Roman Emperor Constantine to usurp pagan celebrations. So tell them you celebrate the real meaning…
My mother took it upon herself to loudly ask me, in front of everyone in the room, to stop and listen to what my nephew was saying. I stopped, I looked, I listened to what was essentially an Easter speech, wondering what my mother thought I could take from it that I hadn’t taken from years wasted on church and…
If they didn't believe in magically changing minds, they'd be atheists.
I hate when people say grace while holding hands. It’s so presumptuous and there’s really no way to not participate without drawing attention. If you invited me over to eat, don’t make me pray with you or feel guilty for not wanting to. Also, germ transmission.
I have found that people get extra super defensive around the big religious holidays if you don’t share their faith. It’s not enough to be polite. They always need to try to force you to join them. I’m sitting here quietly, not making faces, not being rude. Why do you need to make me say a prayer for everyone? Do you…
??? Wtf is this comment
You know how we as black people go to scary movies and yell at the screen, “WHY YOU GO IN THERE? NO! HE THE KILLER! RUUUN! IF THAT WAS ME I’D blaseblaseblase...”
Even though I know I’m going to shit myself I am still going to see this.
If that’s not a cry for help/to be taken behind the barn I don’t know what is.
Moral of the story:
That’s the most shocking thing he has ever said. The man who has bankrupted countless businesses and a few casinos is claiming he knows more.
And, as reported on NPR this afternoon, he said the Federal Reserve Bank [governors] “don’t know anything about markets.”

What? No Trumpy Bear? Surely she’s still got Trumpy Bear!
First her BFF unfollowed her on Twitter, now her 17 year old nemesis is about to embark on his best life. It couldn’t have happened to a nicer person.
