How many of you pretend?

How many people in this forums are pretending to be religious just to avoid problems with your family, or maybe to keep that job with your christian boss. Maybe you do it for other reasons?

I once did that with someone because I didn't want them to feel bad, but then I explained politely why I was no longer religious and the response was respectful. My advice is to always let people know how you feel about religion and the smart ones will understand and respect your decision, but never disrespect their religious choices either.
