I hardly ever get clowned on for being an atheist. I usually get pity or, occasionally, a look of disgust. They say shit like, "I'll pray for you." I know it usually comes from a good place, but it still feels condescending.
Which is why I don't even mess with discussing religion. It always leads to people trying way too hard to get me to attend church to try and convert me. So anytime I feel like the conversation is veering in that direction, I just bring up something else. Like one of my good friends is very serious about his religion, he invited me over once and they pretty much jumped me. It was all very awkward for both of us, they assumed I didn't know jack shit about Christianity so they were talking down to me like crazy (it was unintended) and were shocked when I pretty much knew some of the scriptures they were quoting and all. Then we ended up playing Marvel vs Capcom 3 and I tore into them like crazy.
