I was raised a Southern Baptist. It seems to me the worst kind of Christianity. I have just recently started to “find myself” for lack of a better term and realizing I don’t believe in God was part of that. I am an athiest. I think that’s the first time I put it in black and white. At this point I feel like I have just started on a long journey to becoming a proud athiest. I feel like I am alone in the “real world” except for my fiance. I feel surrounded by people who would think I’m some kind of evil. Even at work people talk about God all the time and it makes me uncomfortable. At the moment I am reading The God Delusion and I find myself hiding the title from people for fear of being shunned. I want to be able to be proud of who I am and now I am looking for support from those who are going through or have gone through what I am going through now.

More and more of us are coming out of the woodwork as our political climate changes from fear and unquestioning faith to hope and skepticism. I am a proud atheist too!
