CNN: Atheists are still reluctant to ‘come out’ - midwest.social

Just not even really worth ‘coming out’. Why deal with all the arguments that are likely to crop up from it? When I was the angsty teenage atheist I got off on that shit. Now…im over it.
It’s a bit sad that “coming out” as an Atheist is even a thing. Where I’m from it’s basically the assumption. I’ve met a few people that mention that they’re religious before and my reaction is always an astonished “but they seemed so normal.”
Please tell me where you live because I’m going to move there tomorrow

It’s a tiny town called Finspång. I hate it here.

Sweden overall isn’t that bad though, if you can put up with the long nights and long days.

In many ways, Sweden is currently the greatest country on earth.

You should consider yourself to be fortunate

It is a pretty nice country. The climate is woeful, but even so we have a lot of good things going for us.
I could only imagine the worst thing about your country being “it’s cold and dark a lot” instead of “we think some groups of people shouldn’t have rights.”

You’ve not experienced cold and dark. It’s one thing to hear about it and another to live it.

There are other problems too. Like the nazi party being the second largest party in parliament.

I think the absolute worst thing is seeing what happens in the U.S. and then see our right wingers go “we should do this.”Stop and frisk was a big talking point last election. And you should see how our war on drugs is going.
