I act like a hard ass but unless I'm pissed off or feel justified, I don't like making people upset. Tweeted a Christian on twitter and she tweaked out. Granted, she was being bombarded by a lot of atheists, and I'm sure not all were polite about it. She was a kid who felt under attack. Not really conducive for informative conversation. Oh well, maybe she learned something. I just don't like it when I see another culture's symbols being appropriated or used without understanding its meaning. Christians wouldn't like it if I tattooed a cross onto me, they'd see it as disrespectful.

Coincidentally I do have a cross tattooed on me but I was still a Christian at the time and I was clinging as hard as I could onto my faith. Plus, it's my body and my tattoos all have meaning to me. I still go back and forth on whether I want to keep it or not. I think I want to cover it up with something though. The more I get into atheism, the more my little rose-colored god glasses are shattered.
