"I am an atheist"

One of the most frequent topics encountered in my recent intensive online conversations regarded religion. I didn't wanted to ask, as in the case of many of those I was speaking to, it is more or less obvious. But, when asked, my answer was very sincere: "I am an atheist". And, as predicted and as I am used to, the feedback was varying from condescendent words to refuse to continue talking - argument "my religion is forbidding me to talk with somebody like you" (here it is, of course, my fault, as my IQ might forbid me to spend my neuronal connections talking with various kind of ...let's say people with a high degree of intolerance).
