12732797, I have no desire to gather with atheist groups

or make other people atheist.

But what I do appreciate is more people feeling like they can question their beliefs or outright declare their non-belief more and more. Because there's NO limit to the amount of Christian quotes, pics, testimonies, and general allusions to church, prayer, etc. out here. It's inescapable. And that's fine that people want to talk about their faith and it's part of their lives. But for a while agnostics/atheists felt silenced I think. Shamed about it. Unable to talk about it as openly, especially in Black circles.

I haven't gone a day without seeing some kind of Christian or Faith-based anything in eye or ear-shot. So when I see a few FB posts that are opposite of that - definitively so - then it's like *exhale*
