Ex-theists are often like ex-smokers, sanctimonious and insufferable.

In a professional capacity I keep it to myself.

So glad you're ex- both those things.  Neither is anything I'd wish on anyone.  But I'm not going to go nazi on those who choose them for themselves.  People get to disagree so long as I'm not bodily or materially damaged.  (So my mother who drove a station wagon with its windows up full of kids around San Diego smoking like a fiend probably doesn't qualify for my tolerance.)
