Bo-ring!
Am I wrong?
-I'm sure it's been said-Why do atheists make so much noise? Are they proud of themselves? Are they preaching their religion to us? Are they just making whimpers for help? Atheists are people who don't go to the party, but like to criticize those who do as being hypocritical party goers.
I dont tell anybody about my beleifs unless they ask.
Nobody ever does.

I thought you worshiped pancakes.
OK, even if you don't worship pancakes I'll still think you are a good person.
What are your beliefs?
Blasphemy!(Hi Luna!) Of course I worship Pancakes. But I fully realize that the Creator could just as easily manifest himself as, say, waffles.
Being a rather big fan of plants, that gets my thumbs up!I believe we're here to change oxygen into CO2 for the plants. Anything above that is just our ego talking.
As an Atheist I am constantly in a position to confront people about their beliefs; and I usually do. I constantly hear the complaint that I am as fundemental as the religious that I am trying to inform (disprove.) I can understand this point of view but find it hard to hold my tongue when I am constantly reminded of the religion-inspired hate, war, and pain caused by people of faith.
I feel that as an atheist it is my duty to speak my mind and try to convince those with beliefs in the supernatural that God does not exist, but more importantly encourage them to question their advisors and texts.
What do you think about people who relentlessly try to point out the fallacy of your beliefs. Is it anyone's place to do so? Is there a difference between an atheist trying to convince a believer of the absence of God and a believer trying to recruit an atheist?
I guess this zeal is a product of my newfound lack of belief.

Actively trying to recruit people doesn't work. It only works on the feeble minded and the simple. If you truly believe that we're wrong. Then live your life as you would live it and I'll live mine as I'll live it. Let your actions and words be the example.As an Atheist I am constantly in a position to confront people about their beliefs; and I usually do.
