Totally understandable. I was there too. Just seems a bit off putting for me nowadays after many years of atheism. Feels like any community that is full of new believers, whether it is veganism, leftism or anything else. The level of animosity is through the charts.
Damn man that sounds super shitty. I live with the privilige of eastern gemany where being atheist is the norm and even in the rest of germany you would not get pestered with religion. I get the animosity because your religious people are largely nutjobs that push for frightening stuff (from what i see on social media and the news) so sorry for that. I hope it gets better for you guys.
Or maybe it’s the frustration with religious bullshit impacting our lives? Most of us just want to live, but the religious bullshit keeps fucking that up.
As someone not living in america i probably face not enough bullshit to feel this mich agression towards religious people. The nicest person at my job is super religious, but luckely not in a preachy way. I get the feels though, coming from a strict christian house. Sucked major balls and made my sister an agressiv atheist too. Just wanted to test the waters and seems i was right.
This community has some real “i was religious till yesterday and i hate it” vibes. Whats up with that?
It’s almost like some people need help processing the trauma they endured in their religions… I know. Shocking right?

Living in the USA is often a constant, daily struggle to deflect and divert religious individuals… And I don’t even live in a super religious area.
