Of course you do. That's why I also object refering to Dawkins and others as our favorites. I have no favorites and I certainly don't need anyone to tell me why I'm an atheist.
As long as religion isn't rubbed into my face, I don't rub atheism in anyone's face. You can expect the same reaction, by the way, as if some missionary is knocking on your door.
