Religious People Distrust Rapists and Atheists Equally... Offended

See the full story here.

I like how religious people don't trust atheists just because we are atheists. Not because of the content of our character or because of things we have/have not done, but because of what we believe in. If you're a big Jesus lover and don't want to be my BFF because I'm not "pro-jesus" then fine, but to put me on the same level as a rapist is just pretty rude.

I appreciate the article making the point that atheists generally do not favor other atheists over religious believers, but instead we think that religion is not a huge issue when trust is involved.

I just thought this article was funny and gives us a bit of insight into the mindset of some religious folk.
