Q:Hey, I noticed that on an ask you answered you said that Atheist's are often times the ones who give you shit based on your religion. I know that it's not my place to speak for all these people, so just know that we're not all like that. I think we get so angry because we see religion making such a political stance in a theocracy that we get kind of jumpy whenever it's mentioned. You're a nice, open-minded person, that's all that should matter.

Aw, I understand that completely.
I don’t judge Atheists at all, in fact I love talking to open-minded ones :)
In that answer, I was just remembering the fact haha.
I’ve experienced some negative things in my life, but I’d never hold that against other Atheists.
It’s just as bad as someone who thinks I’m a terrorist because I’m Muslim, you know? How could I treat someone else the same way? 

I won’t deny I get upset at people who act like religions are inferior because of how people use it, and when people say it’s completely illogical when it’s just another way of life.
But it’s my personal mantra that all people have the equal potential to be wonderful or down-right shitty, religion or not, and I see religion (or lack thereof) as a deeply personal thing that honestly doesn’t involve people who aren’t invested in your personal life.

I promise you I get equally upset when I see religion being used in politics and brain-washing, but honestly that kind of manipulation can happen with any set of beliefs, even secular and scientific ones.

Haha, but long story short, thanks for taking the time!
