Wow trade chat pretty much sums up this thread.

WTF is "trade chat"?

can we agree that being an agnostic is akin to being a coward?

too much of a pussy to make a goddamn decision

Not knowing and admitting that you don't/can't know is cowardly? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

refusing to make a meaningless decision is cowardly

One day I hope society progresses enough where making such a decision is actually meaningless.

I have family members that don't talk to me over it. I've known people who have had their cars vandalised for having a Darwin amphibian or a science rocket on them. I've been kicked out of class in High School for not saying "under god" several times and preemptively prevented from attending assemblies because of my lack of a faith.

That's just a couple of minor things off hand.

I should note that I live in the most liberal state in the union and went to public school and still had to deal with that. What happens down south makes me rage just thinking about it.

do you feel persecuted for your atheism? do you think atheists as a group are being persecuted in america?

i'm dreadfully uninformed about the persecution of atheists - is any of it lion based?

that would be awful!
