Admitting being gay is a much harder endeavor, believe me. Your entire life is turned upside down and even people you thought as friends and family turn hostile or avoid you.

I say come out and filter out of your life those that don't really love you, even your family. If they truly love you, they won't let issues like religion stand in the way. Screw the rest. Be who you want to be; we only get to live once.

Beleive it or not but most people dislike atheists more than they dislike gays (check opinion polls). I actually talked to a gay Christian and he didn't like me very much.

No way it's like this here in Greece. Although very religious as a nation , anyone I've talked to has almost no problem with me being an atheist.

Also, how does being an atheist affect you life pretending to believe in something else? You just go to the church once a year, say a prayer in front of people. Try doing that while being gay. Try telling everyone to back off when you become 20 and everyone constantly asks you why you don't have a girlfriend yet.

Believe me, it's 1,000,000 times harder.
