Evangelicals v. Atheists
I'm willing to believe that I can learn something about life in the workplace by observing the way I am treated by evangelical Christians and atheists. My major point is this: they are polar opposites in belief but not in action.WARNING: this is a generalization, and I'm doing it on purpose. I have run into this -- not every time -- but far too many times.
| Characteristic | Evangelicals | Atheists |
| In treatment of others not like themselves | Hint others may have lesser souls | Hint others may have lesser minds |
| In dialogue with others | Won't listen; too busy praying | Won't listen; too busy scoffing |
| Regarding the mainstream | Believe they know best for others | Believe they should rule others |
| Regarding each other | Believe atheists are responsible for the moral degradation of society | Believe evangelicals are responsible for 2000 years of atrocities |
| Self-righteous? | Yeah, but sometimes will act humble | Yeah, and don't give a shit what you think |
If you are an evangelical or an atheist and you are offended by this, you better look in the mirror. Your customers are seeing what I see.

this was entertaining. I believe you held back. I'm quite sure you already came up with a few more and did not post them.
