I tell them that the Goddess loves them too.

If they object I gently point out their hypocrisy.

"I hope it works. Tell him or her to give me a call."

Jesus was Jewish, so expect a collect call.

@chucklesIII
Are you Jewish? No? Then you don't get to say shit like that.

Level 6

I avoid being rude, so I just utter a passive thanks..unless...
the person is trying to proselytize me...then it's firm
"Go Away"

Level 8

I usually tell them what they want to hear and then they walk away quicker that way

Level 7

It's been a while since anyone's issued me that greeting without buttoning it with a quip-to-tirade about me or someone being hellbound. Depending on my mood, I may respond with "Shalom" or just keep on keepin' on...

Or even better yet, has got to be the street corner megaphone +Bible !

Level 8

"I'm an atheist. So that means nothing to me."

Level 7

This never happens to me. The only strangers who approach me either ask for directions or spare change.

Level 8

Kick them in the balls and run !

Level 7

I don't. No response. Don't give them the opening because that's what they're taught, one opening and start talking.

Level 9

Sorry, I have other beliefs.

Level 8

'I'm sure Donald Duck loves you just as much'

Level 6

Sorry, Deuteronomy 23:1

Level 2

I ask them how they know and to prove it.

This was my first reaction when I read the post. I kinda love what @MountMadness and @SACatWalker posted better 😛

I say “Thanks” and walk away.

Level 4

I say, "I don't believe in God", if they persist, I say, " buzz off". If they continue still, I may get physical.
