Miss Simone, I was wondering: how do you feel about antitheism? See, I like to think of myself as being a pretty dang mellow person, spiritually speaking: I have many friends of many different religious or nonreligious backgrounds and beliefs,…

But … is it being an asshole when somebody brings something up in conversation where they obviously just assume that everyone agrees with their religious views, and you call them out on it?

I don’t go out of my way to troll religious people, but if they decide to bring it up, then I’m certainly going to be vocal about it.

But that implies that there is no way to state your opinion without being an ass and I don’t believe that for a second.

It’s not a choice of SILENCE or BEING A DICK.

There are other choices as well. Most of them are better.
