Atheists just don't wear on their sleeve whatever they believe in because they know firsthand that it could be ridiculed.
So maybe you meant to say, "People who don't like their beliefs laughed at should not tell other people what they are s ...[text shortened]... e unto all men. Being laughed at comes with the territory, especially in these end times.

The thing here is that Christians are exhorted to go into the world and spread the Good Word (Gospel) and to be an example unto all men. Being laughed at comes with the territory, especially in these end times.

Originally posted by twhiteheadWhen I was a little girl, I was stunned with disbelief when I was first told there were people in the world who did not believe in Jesus or God. In my little 8-year-old world, I asked "How can they not believe in God?" I have since grown up and I now understand that everyone has things they don't talk about for fear of ridicule. Atheists can't be that much different from everyone else.
