    The numbness of atheists these days… back in my days atheists were jolly fellows who understood and appreciated a good joke.

      Being jolly and appreciative of good jokes is a two-way street. I wonder how many people of faith are so.

      I’m jolly and friendly. But I’m not going to laugh at a bad joke like, “Christianity” — okay actually that’s making me laugh.

          Maybe you don’t know many actual atheists.

            Oh those outspoken atheists that I know I have known for a long time, from back in the old days.

            But those don’t seem to be the types one comes across in the internet.

              Maybe they’re just friendly to your face. Us atheists are pretty tired of fuck-wit theists making life hard for everyone.

              The internet just removes the necessity of smiling and nodding. Don’t like what I’m saying? Don’t read it. 🤷‍♂️
