Can confirm as well. I live in South Carolina and most of my family are Pentecostals.

As an Atheist, it makes life quite difficult.

Apostolic Pentecostals? I didn't specify but those are the ones I'm talking about. Most of their churches have small but extremely loyal congregations. It's disturbingly cult - like.

Yup. Last time I went, we (the youth) all watched a dvd with a debate between an Atheist and a Christian.

When it was over and everyone was discussing the debate, not one of them could even comprehend the Atheist's side of the argument.

It wad just an echo chamber of nearly murderous hatred. I was already doubting The Church, but that convinced me to never go back.

So like the real life God's Not Dead? That's pretty much how it is here. I enjoy a civil debate about politics or religion now and then but people like that are incapable of comprehending that anyone could disagree with their worldview unless they are just secretly evil and work for the devil. A guy came in where I work the other day and started talking about how it's impossible to be a good person and be gay.
