A day in the life of an atheist.

All atheists have similarities in the fact what they face on a daily basis. The only real difference is the degree of intolerance that atheist face. In the USA atheists are attacked covertly and overtly. We are forced to send our children to schools where schools are controlled locally by theist crackpots that interject revisionist history and pseudo-science. That won't teach sex education and demand prayer in school. We trade with money that pays homage to a god. We go to baseball games where we are forced to participate in paying homage to a Christian god. In some parts of the USA, you can't even conduct business on Sunday due to religious beliefs. Christmas is a national holiday even though it has nothing to do with the government. Some businesses are allowed to not do business with people that are not christians.
When I sneeze christians condescendingly say "bless you." Christians demand that I bow my head in prayer at various places.
In other nations, it is far worse.
The sad thing is that we atheist don't impose a thing on christians. Secular doesn't mean atheist. A fact that christians cannot or will not understand. The fact is that christian are the least tolerant and least respectful people as a group in the world. People might say muslims are but muslim intolerance is largely due to christian intolerance and oppression of non-christians.
Every single day in the life of an atheist is a social challenge.
