[quote=Anonymous]I don't hide or advertise anything.  I'm actually a bit of a chameleon.  If you quote scripture, so will I.  If you talk sports, so will I.  If you talk books, games, recreation, hobbies, kids, food, etc etc, so will I.  Connecting with other people is more important to me than belief.  Yes, I'm atheist and know the Bible; it's just another book, like all the Greek mythology.  If you believed in Greek mythology, I'd talk to you about that too.  You lead the conversation.  I'll smile, nod, validate, and see you.  I can do all of this genuinely.  I find people are more interested in telling me what they believe than asking and listening to what I believe. If they ask me what I believe, I just turn the question around "I believe it's fascinating.  How do you view blah blah blah?"  Or "one (important person) believes it should be interpreted this way.  (Another important person) thinks this.  Hw do you view blah blah blah". As I said I'm genuinely interested in connection, so it's actually all authentic.[/quote]
