FFellow Christians how do I deal with loud atheist coworkers making jokes about our God all day?

[Anonymous]

I am used to loud atheists because my parents were such. I am used to atheists constantly making fun of Jesus and God and. Trying to argue about Christianity. I go to work to get paid and not be homeless. I do not disrespect others faith or lack or life choices. I think its common sense to refrain from making offensive jokes abd comments about sensitive subjects but all my coworkers didn't get the memo apparently. Same with my boss. he's an old man. And everyone is liberal. I am not into politics and i dont like how republicanism comes off as racist at times but im most certainly not liberal !

I feel like i walked into a college campus again or my parents home again. Lmao.

I dont think they know I am a saved Christian. As i said i am there to work and get out. I am nice sweet and friendly because thats who i am.

And funnily enough those atheist jibes and nonsense doesn't really bother me much anymore as it used to. I think i am just stronger in my faith in God and i already know in my heart deeply who my Creator is.

Atheist jokes are like hearing a fool blabber on. Its not even interesting. It sounds stupid.

By dealing with it.

You can ask them to please be more respectful of you, but ultimately?

They're going to behave how they want and you have to just soldier on.

It hurts and it's not very fair, but nobody ever said the path you walk would be an easy one.

Agreed. I’m technically a Muslim, so I believe in the same deity as most Christians believe in. I also would get offended and would tell the atheist coworkers that their jokes offend me and tell them to please lower their volume, as I’m quite sensitive to loudness.

By the way, what is a saved Christian?

They will be dealt with. There is absolutely NO shame in feeling agitated/rebellious against those…. “People”. I think you should just focus a wee bit on not letting them influence your faith. If you’re the only holy person there, then that could be an attack. Be wary of them

It seems like you're doing ok with it. Just try not to let your emotions take over. You'll lose reasoning. Keep in mind if you argue with a fool. You'll begin to look like the fool. I would also say. Let His light shine through you. We are called to be a peculiar people. The salt of the earth. Let your voice be His voice.

God bless you! Thank you.

I have problems with so called saved christians primarily in that you’re substituting one addiction for another. That and theologically in the make believe Christian world do you think God is accepting the people who’ve been loyal all along or the former junkies who suddenly find God.

As for your coworkers they represent the majority & you should move on. Find inner strength and willpower without requiring a mythological belief.

Googlemyahoo I suggest you read (kjv) and seek your answers within His words. Those are important questions. I wouldn't take lightly. Nor would I rely on the answers or explanation of others. Especially the internet. Because one thing is undeniable. All flesh will pass away. Where will you be after that happens. Is up to you.

Some people are just ignorant and unfortunately for them you seem too mature for them so ignore them I guess

I feel your pain. I am more agnostic than atheist. I live in a state where the predominant culture is one particular Christian denomination, so I have the opposite problem as you. They are loud, obnoxious , pushy, judgmental and just generally annoying. No idea how to deal with it.

Record it and then complain to human resources. Then sue them and the company for harassment if it doesn't stop.

[Asker]

I mean thats a bit dramatic. I also need a job to survive.

[HighValue]

If you sue them it can provide you with enough money to survive until you get a different job or retrain. Doing nothing is why people continually mistreat Christians in the workplace and in schools. nothing serious is done about it.

[Asker]

Interesting. Honestly they remibd me how real God and His Word are.

[TwoToTooTutu2]

I knew some people like that. All you can really do is turn the other cheek.

[hostboy__fastestlaps]

Unfortunately that sort of humor is common. Shows like Family Guy and The Simpsons inspired such behavior.

[hostboy__fastestlaps]

They only joke about Christians (and very rarely Jews). Muslims are very strict about their religion because their Prophet is considered art to them and it is their protected culture.

[Avicenna]

Ignoring these fools is the best path

[Asker]

Thanks I tend to agree.

Call HR and they will tell him to STFU.
