10 Things All Atheists Are Tired of Hearing

Like, c’mon, do you really need a book to tell you to not to be a jerk?

Sure, you can believe whatever you want to. But so can I, my friend.

As inspired by my own daily life and every argument I've gotten into over religion, these are a few things we atheists are just outright tired of hearing.

I don't care if, "I'm going to hell," or if I don't know what happens after we die. Just don't say these 10 things to us anymore. Please.

1. When God does things that don’t make sense, just trust him and have faith

Well, then, whether your friend with cancer gets better or dies or whether natural disasters strike big sinful cities or small God-fearing towns, it’s always God. How does that even prove anything?

2. I’ve experienced God personally, so he’s real

By this logic, if I told you, "There is definitely a giant purple unicorn flying in front of my house with rainbow hair because I feel it in my heart"... would you take me seriously?

3. If not the Bible/Qur'an/Torah/etc., where do you get your morals from?

This one is the worst. Like, c’mon, do you really need a book to tell you to not to be a jerk?

4. What if you’re wrong?

I’ll take my chances.

5. Are you saying all this happened by chance?

What’s the Big Bang, again?

6. So, do you even believe in anything?

I believe in the things I can see.

7. What happens when you die?

I have no clue.

8. What is the purpose of your life?

Hm, give me a minute, figuring that out right now.

9. You’re going to hell!

I’ll rather do that than argue with you anymore about religion.

10. There’s no proof that God doesn’t exist

Do we really have to go back to this, again?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
