Whenever I heard an atheist at the jobsite using JC or GD I would mention that they are hypocrites.
They would usually reply “no I’m not” or “what do you mean?” And I would let them know that as an atheist they shouldn’t use words associated with the religions that they do not profess or not abide by nor believe in. They would disagree.... I would counter with the still small voice or caution about playing to close to the slippery ditch and falling therein.
Then I would get that “well what do you believe in?”
My reply was “I believe that you are a hypocrite, get back to work.”
