I would be very suspect as to why there were asking.... if I raised my hand are they all going to give me a lot of crap?? I'm I going to be made a public spectacle of b/c I am supposedly "wrong" and I don't know their version of the so called "truth"?? If so then no, it's none of their business. It really depends on what the "mood" of the gathering is...

Absolutley... one should never be ashamed of what they believe in, regardless of what it is.

If it is a christian gathering, no, I would not. I fear Christians and fear for my life in larger groups.I have been harmed and threatened way to many times to trust.
Any other group, possibly

I think that would be like sitting with the Boston Bruins Fans at a game held in Boston and cheering for the Montreal Canadians !

LOL As a die hard Bruins fan I can vouch for how dangerous this would be!! LOL Great analogy ;o)

I don't think I would. I'm an Atheist and yes I would go to something like that if y friend asked. I wouldnt do it because I wouldnt want to be singled out or put on the spot in front of tons of people. I doubt they would ask if there was any Atheist in the room.

not likely. it'd probably be some Christian organization's event or other church, but i'm just not that kind of gal, to put myself out there for a visual to strangers.
like a pp said, one on one, sure..i'll tell ya anything you want to know, and then some. but not in a group or gathering of unknowns.

Sure. But I don't tend to religion hop or go to other churches. In many Christian fundamental circles, Catholics are not seen as Christian. Though I could stand my own against the onslaught. God knows I've done it enough here.
