Nope not illegal. I actually think it's kinda funny. I don't like the fact that you're atheist, but again it's your right. I will not judge you for it, all I can do is tell you my experiences.

Was it arrogant to say? Maybe, but again anyone could have done this. If I were the cashier, I would have let the lady go & throw in the money myself. Why hold up a line over a few cents? This was an elderly lady probably on a fixed social security income that's about to get her benefits cut back more.

I do believe your point here that everyone is not getting is that:

1) You are not a "Christian" & those that you knew that were did not step up to help an elderly lady who is probably on a fixed income out over a messily $0.21. If that is what she thought Jesus should do, why didn't she do it? Really, isn't that one of the MAIN things that being a Christian is all about, helping the needy?

2) If you knew that she & others in line made damn good money, why didn't she step up to the plate? Really why wouldn't anyone, it's only $0.21?

This is probably a contributing factor to one of the reasons your atheist. I do feel you on how you feel about those that call themselves "Christians" & they mock people, are selfish, & are judgmental of others. These people are not truly Christians because they foolish to God's word. Don't let them turn you off to Him.

I do believe in God, but I am not a religious person, do not go to church (for that reason mentioned above) & do not usually put my beliefs on blast because I do believe it's not anyones business of my religious beliefs. Not everyone is like above mentioned.
