I'm an atheist who helps out with kids in a children's hospital run by a church that I honestly find offensive. Why do I do it? Sometimes doing the right thing sucks, but you do it anyway because it makes things better. I keep my views on god, faith and religion at home and they know they cannot convert me or they lose a volunteer that has been working with them for a decade. As long as the kids love playing on the computers and together we reduce the suffering and misery of the community who gives a shit about what church you go to?
