Although the experience was brief, at that moment I truly felt like I was out of place. I've always assumed most con attendees are atheist/agnostic, but it sort of dawns on you in moments like that. I've been very precatious to avoid mentioning anything remotely relating to my beliefs at every con since out of fear of a super-awkward moment.
