Now you'll never get to ask the big questions -- like what the deal is with Ryan Seacrest. Angel? Demon? Alien? Thanks to your Atheism, the world may never know.

Seriously though, you would be miserable working there. I'd think twice about it. If you do get hired, it may be because they consider it their duty and a challenge to convert you.

If they call you back, and faith comes up, you might tell them that the last place you worked at was faith based too, but that you won them over to secularism. If they ask why you don't work there anymore, just say that you showed up for work one day and there was a sign up saying "closed due to the meaninglessness of existence."

"Let the blankness of their expressions be as a soothing balm unto thee." --An Atheist's Bible (not a real thing, but should be).

Of course, eating and paying bills is nice too. So, there is that.
