Is it normal that I'm willing to do this even though I am an athiest?

Once me and a friend got invited to a youth group. We're both atheist but I stayed back. After it she was really sad. She said that things went fine until the end when they had a group prayer. No one said it to her face but her pastor pretty much said "I'm so glad we're Christians. Non believers are evil."

No one likes being called evil. You're normal for accepting but don't be surprised if things get uncomfortable. Just leave if they do.
