I'm proud to wear the moniker "skeptic." In fact, when there are undeserved negative connotations like with atheist, it makes me want to use them more.

Oh, you think atheists are baby-eating devil-worshippers that just like to fornicate? Yeah, I'm one of those.

Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
