Embrace all your happy thoughts. Do good stuff for people. Help the less fortunate when you can. Give people the benefit of the doubt that they are doing the best that they know how to.
Get your head around the fact that there are all kinds of faiths that go back to one God. Or many Gods. And know that it's not anyting personal to you, but very personal to that person.
Keep in mind, that even if you don't agree, most people want to do the right thing in life.
Even if the person doesn't agree with your outlook, humankind wants to be kind.
How many stupid wars will we get into about religion are we going to get into? How many people have to die? How LONG is it going to take us to quit worrying about all this STUPID crap? Get this people....you don't have to AGREE with everyone. You can believe all your supposedly weird and wacky crap, and take a crapshoot on whether you go to "heaven" or not.
My problem, is that a VERY SMALL PORTION OF WORLDWIDE RELIGION is telling us ALL what to do. Go about your business, I say. Research your OWN soul. Get out of mine. Quit telling me what I can't, and can do. If you don't like what I have to say, go and shake your head and scroll past. Pray for my soul. But get over yourself.

Thing is, you dont see atheists speaking up except when someone else brings up religion. For an example (and dont take it personally. Its just an example) you will probably never see a thread titled "Ive had it with athiests!" except on a religious message board. Nor will you see billboards that say "Got nobody?" or "Nobody Saves". Or "Santa is the reason for the season".
