A christian person wants to know the devil's side.

It is pretty good mostly. If you are not persecuted. You are also free to do as you please, which is nice. And you don't have to go to church.

There are ups and downs I am sure. But I think being religious is probably worse.

Well lets see, being an atheist has nothing to do with the devil.

What exactly do you want to know about atheism dude?

Why, especially Atheists, misspell it.

There is no devil, therefore there is no devil's side.

BTW I'm not an atheist.

since the devil is a religious invention an atheist would know what you really talk about here

So you're a Christian person? But not a smart one I take it.

For an Atheist there is no such thing as "the devil's side" - if I am an Atheist I do not believe in God, any God, nor do I believe in the Devil/Lucifer/Satan/whatever. Maybe I am an Atheist for no real explainable reason other than "I just don't believe", or maybe I am an Atheist whose Atheism operates from a reasoned place where I think there is a good reason (maybe even scientific reason) not to believe in a God, any God (say a Richard Dawkin's kind of Atheist.)

Either way no devil's side. I find the concept absurd -

Unreasonable Theist: "What, you don't believe in God? So you follow the Devil then!"

Me: "Ummm... so I don't actually have any choice in the matter? If I'm not following God then I am automatically following the devil, even though being an Atheist I don't believe in him either? Sounds like pretty crap reasoning."

At which point the unreasonable theist will peddle out some over quoted tid bit like "But the devil believes in you" at which point I have a good laugh at his/her expense. The I threaten to play some heavy metal at them.

Give it time. Good things come to those who wait (that's my over used quote of the day.)

There is no devil, it is just a misisnterpretation of other concepts that lead to the modern concept of devil.

Wow, more than one sign of retardation has crossed with another; do these people even think when they make these threads?

Not really.

Satan totally loves us even though we don't worship him. He's a nice guy in fact.

Sadly being Atheist I don't believe in it either. 😉

Satan would be much more interesting to meet than god.
