If anyone would like to be tagged, then consider yourself officially tagged and respond accordingly :) 

The TAG questions :

1. Were you raised atheist or did you have a religious upbringing of some sort?

1a: If raised religious -- When and why did you become an atheist? What was this transition from religion like for you, for your family, etc.? Was this a quick transition or a slow one? Was it easy for you or difficult? 

1b: If raised atheist -- Have you ever been drawn to religion at any point in your life? Why or why not?


2. Overall, would you say that other people's belief in God is a good thing, a bad thing or something you're indifferent about? Why?


3. Have you ever been treated differently by people because you're an atheist? If so, please describe this in detail.


4. If not a religious person, do you consider yourself to be a spiritual person? Why or why not?


5. For many people, belief in God provides hope or comfort with respect to suffering in the world and to the inevitability of death. As an atheist, how do you come to terms with these things?
