Oh my God is a popular expression, it has nothing to do with an assertion of faith, unfortunately. I hear people saying “F***!”, too, and they don’t worship that! As for the “true and true”…hmm. In my opinion, this is a false statement. I don’t know which atheists you’ve talked to, but they don’t really believe in anything. In fact, that is the principle of an atheist. No God. 😉 Maybe in some secret part of them, they are hunting for a “Greater Force”, but they do not believe in any religion, not just Catholicism.
(Correct me if I’m wrong, non-believers.) 🙂
I tend to agree with your view. I will say though that typically Atheists believe in infinite matter in connection with the existence of the universe. If they are capable of believing that the universe always was and always will be, there is room for the belief in God however outwardly rejected.

For instance, a “Catholic” just invited me to F off in no uncertain terms. Am I to assume that he then believes that what he said is his “God”? It’s not quite the same thing, but still fits the example.

There’s rudeness everywhere you go, but it doesn’t mean you’ll run into rude atheists or Catholics always.

Anyway, that was a nice story. I know not all atheists are bad people. Some of them are actually really nice, and I keep them in my prayers.
 
Yes, for some people “oh my God” has about as much to do with religion as the phrase “By Jove”.

I’m puzzled how a non-believer could make this kind of connection but anyway just thought of sharing this. :)MJ
Most likely, she’s had some kind of exposure to the Christian faith, it’s almost impossible not to have, so she knows one of the most basic tenets of the Christian faith is God is father of all and to all 🤷

Therefor if you believe in God, you have a common Father.

All atheists that I know personally know this of the Christian faith, even if they know nothing else.

I doubt there are many atheists that I don’t know personally don’t know this either.

See? We’re not all bad 😛

I have to agree:) but I think there could be some atheists who believe in a specific religion and there is others who love to be a part of a great force, energy, nature, universe, which I think we are a part of, but I don’t have to call it god, that would be another phenomenon.
