As human beings, we get great satisfaction from achieving something through hard work and sacrifice. The harder we work for something, the more we are inclined to enjoy it. I am very happy to suffer for my religious beliefs because I know that the Supreme Lord is very happy when we remember Him and even when an atheist speaks of God, he is gaining some spiritual advancement. It seems to me that many (atheists) spend a great deal of time thinking about God and this makes me very happy.

Why should I let the opinion of small minded people bother me?
After all dose it bother you when people degrade you for being an atheist?
I say live and let live. I do not preach and lord my religious beliefs on others and I ask in turn they do not do the same to me.
If that bothers them so much then that is their problem not mine.
observant Jew.

Have to grow a thick skin and not let it bother. Especially since the premises they are basing their comments on are totally ignorant of the actual meanings in Judaism.
I'm Jewish.
Mostly I just concentrate on continued learning in my religion and don't have time, or give time, to those who would act like that.

If you meant Mormons with the word "Mormans", they are Christians. Even though I'm not a Mormon, it's easy to figure out that the religion is Christian when you see their official name being "Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints"

well for me as long as i know i am correct in my religion i dont care what others think, i know i am correct, i dont even expect them to follow me cause truthfully very few people give a long time to think about what religion they are following. everyone will think they are right and everyone else is wrong no matter the case

(i'm LDS/Mormon. we are Christians, in spite of the shown fact that. We have self belief in Jesus). i'm able to handle the ridicule simply by fact i've got self belief in my faith. i've got self belief in Jesus Christ. different individuals mocking me would not remember, simply by fact i think of i'm doing what my Savior needs me to be doing. And what my Savior needs of me is a lot greater significant in my own existence than what some human beings on Yahoo solutions think of =)

People don't tend to bother me too much.
You get the jokes and stuff, people laughing at the Krishnas with their shaved heads and robes, etc. but nothing too serious.
Just, 'you wacky hindu', blah blah blah :)
If you know you're right, it doesn't matter.

Mormons are Christian.
You correct the misconceptions, and live your life knowing that you are doing the right thing.
And I remember that my ancestors were constantly being chased out of their homes, so I have it easy.
