10. My first few admissions that I am an Atheist were ackward.

Siblings were quite, and a friend was too. It felt like they were the ones walking on eggshells, not me. No one asked me why. I am not one to start an argument, but do not piss me off by repeatedly disrespecting someone who is not able to stand up for themselves.

The more I let people know my feeling about the Bible and organized religion the easier it becomes and I am not combative or argumentative. We all believe in different things for different reasons. I have thought a lot about when I started to question religion and my earliest memory is from about age 11. Every question I asked was never really answered, just one platitude after another.
