It is very important to have a dialogue whether it's controversial or not. The more we actually have these discussions the better chance we will have at being more accepting of each other's way of thinking.
Should Atheists Speak Out? - Comments From Our Community
What's the point speaking against religion? Should atheists keep their opinions to themselves? See what others think or share your own views.
I make my atheism public just as I make public the many other important aspects of my life: my politics, my food preferences, what I do for a living, and my choice of dogs over cats. Unlike these other areas, identifying myself as a atheist has caused havoc upon many around me. I speak of it as openly as others in my life speak of their religious fundamentalism and let people deal with it as they see fit.
