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?

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
