Beliefs

I am an Atheist. I don't advertise it. I don't argue with people who believe in God. But when do I tell people I don't believe in God? If someone brings something up about God, should I say I don't believe? Or just let it go. I don't care if you believe in God, but don't push it on me. I don't believe in God because there is no evidence. I don't have any concrete proof. The Bible is not proof. It wasn't written by God, it wasn't written by Jesus. If that was the case I can say that Harry Potter is real and there's a place called Hogwarts. You can't disprove it. But I don't fight people's beliefs unless they are trying to push their beliefs on me. To each his own is what I say. But don't let it stop people finding cures for diseases because you think God is going to cure you and everyone else. I am not immoral because I don't believe in God. In fact, I'm a good person. I have a good life. I don't steal, cheat, or kill. I'm a good person. Don't think otherwise just because I don't believe in God. You can believe in God, but I don't have too. There is many other religions, many other thought processes, mine is different and that's okay.

So when do I tell people I'm an Atheist? If someone says, God Bless or whatever, should I say something? Or is it like someone saying Happy Chaunakah to me? I don't insulted at all. I'm not Jewish, but I say Happy Chaunakah right back. Which is why I never understood the not allowed to say Merry Christmas.

So I don't believe in God...but I feel like sometimes if I don't tell people, well I don't mean advertise it because I don't push my thoughts on other people as long as they don't push theirs on me, I'm not being myself...
