Hey there! Atheist here too!0

Another one here0

I am a Christian and I will state the same thing as I did on that thread, `if the shoe was on the other foot` then you may find it offensive?
What shoe and what foot? What am I supposed to be finding offensive?
the shoe you put in your mouth? the `left shoe` Honey, I am saying that people are entitled to their own beliefs, offensive is your defensive, I have no problem with your beliefs/none beliefs
What are you talking about? I never said that others don't have the right to believe whatever they want. I'm not offended by anything. Are we having the same conversation?0 -
I am -not- atheist, but don't really care if you believe in something or not. I am a firm believer in allowing people to believe that they want.
I consider myself a gay-marriage supporting, pro-stem cell research, non-preaching christian...basically I read the bible at home and believe what -I- want to believe lol.....don't think it should be preached in the public schools, but I do believe in allowing people to -pray- as long as it is not required of all. I am a HUGE supporter of seperation of church and state. Feel free to add me if you want...there are no references to any form of religion or spirituality on my page (this isn't the place for it )0 -

No, she just felt she had to put it out there that she's Christian and beat around the bush about being offended by your thread.0 -

This is divisive.
No, it's not. (or are you being sarcastic?)
It's no different than a 40 year old seeking other 40 year olds as MFPals--if they write that, do we automatically assume they're being divisive because they don't prefer 20 year old friends? No. This isn't a thread arguing ANYTHING...it's simply a person who is an atheist seeking other atheist friends. Nothing wrong with that.0 -
Prepare to get friend requested by Christians.
I think that Atheists think themselves to be more offensive to Christians than they really are- but then again I've never been on that side of things. I am a Christian... and I do not expect anything "christian" out of them.
Many people that claim to be Christians live as though there is no God- which makes them agnostic. What's the difference?
I have no problem being friends with Christians (or Muslims or Jews or Buddhists or Yogis or whatever) as long as they don't try to convert me. Friend away!0 -
Hey...I'm not only an atheist, I'm also a pro-choice, gay marriage backing socialist. In short, I'm guaranteed to piss off a good 3/4 of the population merely by breathing ;-)

Hello! Very happy to say I am and never have cared what other people thought. I like the comment below. That is how I have always felt.
quote=mfpcopine - I believe in the power of people acting at their very best to conduct themselves with good will and sensitivity and altruism towards others.0 -
I'm delighted to see so many of us! I did find an atheist group after I posted this, but it doesn't seem super active.

It's sad when expressing an opinion of no named religion is offensive. People need to take their tampons out and relax. If you are not an atheist, move along.0 -
me me me!
I'm Atheist . That sounds weird but I used to be afraid to tell people. Imagine that...
I love Doctor Who too:: Your ticker is awesome!
Thanks!
And I'll second that. I'm an obsessive Whovian and I've MET my first Doctor. My first Doctor was Sylvester McCoy and he's actually a friend of a friend of mine these days.
I, too, am a Whovian. River Song is my role model.0 -

What is against the rules? Which rule?0 -
This is divisive.
How is it divisive? Is it not ok to seek out people who are similar to you?
Nope, apparently not. For future reference, this apparently applies to birthday threads as well.
15. Divisive Topics Are Better Suited For Groups, Not the Main Forums
Divisive topics, particularly those that seek input from or are relevant only to a select group of users, are better placed within an appropriate Group rather than the Main Forums. For example, topics relevant to only one religion should not be placed on the main forums but rather within a group related to that religion. We reserve the right to move any topic to a relevant public Group which interested members may join if they wish to continue to participate.0 -
