Hey, hey, hey....no one has a right to make you feel like dirt. But when it comes to certain topics and "cliques," I tend to steer clear, because of how rude of a community you tend to get. I know from experience, working around gamers can be a bit of a challenge, because of how arrogant the ones I've had been friends with can be. ...I used to be a gamer myself. Now, not so much.
I don't think you have to be an athiest or that shouldn't be the driving factor of anything science related. I'm agnostic and believe there is some kind of higher power. Lately, though, I'm finding that anything goes--so, in a sense, I do believe, but I don't like being labeled or following rules, sooooo....haha!
