Me: I'm an Atheist.
What they heard: I worship the devil, hate everyone and have no soul or heart.
Me: I'm a Christian.
What they heard: She's a bible thumper, doesn't like gays and is a goody goody.
How about no? Just because someone doesn't believe in god, doesn't make them a disgusting horrible person who worships the devil, and just because someone believes in god doesn't make them a goody goody who thinks gays aren't people and constantly quotes the bible.
If we weren't so quick to judge everyone, maybe we could actually take the time to get to know who they actually are, beyond their religion or there lack of.
