I would replace the word religion with the word gay on his email and ask him to do a test first.

One of the best ways to combat religious people is to flip their logic against them. Put the shoe on the other foot and watch them implode.

Anyway if you want to craft a particular response I would be happy to help you. Would you like to post the test here with particulars changed to generic names to keep confidential so we may examine this.

I love the Ricki Gervais response for religious bullies

Here is what you do get with him 1 on 1

Ask him what is his religion
He will say xyz
Then you ask him how many other religions are out there 1000-3000?
He will agree there are many
You then ask him do you believe in those other 3000 religions and all their gods?
He will say ofc not I only believe xyz religion.

Then you drop this line "well boss I am just like you, I just don't believe in those 3000 religions + one more"

i recommend not starting a pissing contest with new boss. it might be amusing but its not something that will give a long term positive. ......... i still find it hard to believe your being harassed for being a 'atheist

slave mentality, calling someone a boss

a dog has a boss

Well, I got an e-mail from my beloved boss right now.

The so called "test" is not a paper and not even a seperate file or anything, he just wrote four questions in his e-mail. I guess thats what he meant. Those questions are...i feel like I am part of a really bad movie or a hidden cam joke.

Here it is - this is serious, guys remember. This is not a parody:

Question 1: Do you think someone is watching you from above and judges your actions here on earth?

Question 2: Would you call yourself a moral being and if so, why?

Question 3: What is the purpose of life in your opinion?

Question 4: What do you think will happen when you die?

Thats it, I swear. No joke. I dont know if thats the whole test or if its part of a test or whatever. I am tempted to send this straight to our head office honestly....thats so cringe and so unreal*lol

This is a saying bro, chill out. I say that too. We arent secretly religious.

Oh look a wild tistuff appears. I suppose if I say omg that will make me religious like you? What if I told you I often use satire that flies over your head?
I thought we banished you to the shadow realm please don't pop out like that.

I am done with the word atheist since it always led to confusion on the religious side. They wanted to categorize me the way they are all categorized themselves.
So no, I am not an atheist and the boss, as well as myself, also never referred to me as an atheist.

just sounds like he is proselytizing?

Quote (TiStuff @ Apr 11 2025 02:00pm)

you notice i dont say "atheist" but " 'atheist" i include a apostrophe with the word. its very important.

Quote (Saurod @ Apr 11 2025 05:08am)

No its not important. Its the opposite, its totally irrelevant.

Quote (TiStuff @ Apr 11 2025 02:22pm)

putting a apostrophe at the start of a word is the same as putting a word in quotes.
drawing attention to the word
it means there can be more to the word then the usual understanding of the word

if i was in a verbal discussion and i used the word 'atheist i would say "atheist" and at the same time i would air quote with my fingers
