Godless Ranting

I like to read the comment threads in most atheist blogs to see what other people thing while reading this one a few people said something alone the lines of "If someone would break up with you for becoming an atheist, you shouldn't have been with them in the first place." I am going to disagree with that. Everyone has the rights to their own personal tastes, likes, dislikes, and needs. If your partner is the kind that needs to be with another Christian, they are allowed, and that is fine. They also have the right to break up with you should you change, especially if the change is in something as central to an individual's personality as their belief system. Turn that around on yourself. That if your atheist partner suddenly became super religious? You might still love them, but if they truly followed their bible and worked to convert you, spent their Sundays at church and donated 10% of their salary to the church, became pro life and rejected evolution and thought The Gays had no right to marry (assuming you are like me, you may not be) you might not want to continue to be with that person. And that's ok too. YOU have the right to your personal tastes, and sometimes changes can be too big to compromise on.
