Orthodox atheists
Dear Pud,
I have a few friends who are atheist. They're great people and I have a lot of fun hanging out with them.
But my Mom thinks that non-religious people are infidels. She's upset that I hang out with them, and was even more upset when I told her I was joining a band with them.
Should I listen to my mom and ditch them? Or should I tell her to mind her own business?
Thanks,
Brian

USA Brian,
Religion is faith. And faith is believing something without proof.
Therefore. anyone who firmly believes anything relating to the existence or absence of God, is religious -- since there's no proof either way.
So tell your Mom that your friends are just as religious as she is.
Rock on,
Pud
