So if you fall under that category you are an atheist, whether you like it or not.
You can't just disassociate yourself away from a term, because you don't like the consequences. That's like people who say they hate 'Paki's', but they're not racialist (yes there are people who say that).
Agnostic is someone who is on the fence, so to speak.
Live with the consequences of the choices you make.

If your associates have a problem with an atheist you need to seek out a better and more interesting group.
It is not really like that. He just kind of said it as he was walking away. He did'nt lecture me or anything. I don't think he thinks any less of me,,,,,But who knows , he might.
Besides I really like my job and the people I work with...........edit on 1-9-2011 by liejunkie01 because: s[pe;;ing
