"Do you have evidence to support this or are you happy just to spit out mindless, childish insults about the way atheists smell without bothering about their truth? And do you not see the implication of your admission that atheists are already a majority in workplaces like yours?" Tell me, what actually is their truth? I want to hear it.
The evidence is my experience at work in the public service while living in a Post Christian world. You should look up Rerum Novarum (a Pope Leo XIII Encyclical) - it's about social justice in the workplace. It is still relevant today. One of the duties of employers is "to respect the dignity of workers and not regard them as slaves". I've felt like a public slave. They only reward psychophants. There is so much dishonesty at my work going on.
"And do you not see the implication of your admission that atheists are already a majority in workplaces like yours?" What are you trying to say here? That I just have to live with it??
I've only recently realised that the people I have trusted over the years tend to be Christians or at least have Christian values. I've been in the wilderness for years and have only recently gone back to church for solace. I have been rehabilitating for about 20mths now after a hellish few years I had in the workplace. Now that I am recovered, I am contemplating a way out of my workplace oppression.
