"Coming Out" as an Atheist -

I use the phrase "Coming Out" because in many ways coming out as an Atheist is very similar to coming out as gay. It really depends on the types of people that make up your family but I am sure there are some people for whom coming out as an atheist would actually be harder then coming out as gay. I seem to remember someone making a joke about telling your parents you are an atheist so that you can say that you were just kidding and that you were just gay.

See this video for the reaction that young ex-Catholic got when he came out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8Aq00yJSxo

This is the first in a great series of videos about one man's quest to discover who wrote the bible. This examination takes him to many places and ends up with a realization that the bible is not the true word of God. I cannot be. It is the word of men and sometimes petty chauvinistic and devious men, at that.
