Sure, I don't have one.  I never had the misfortune of having to approach atheism as a plausibility.  So I don't have any of the hangups I commonly see in people coming at it from "the other direction", trying to make sense of this or that without a god.

Plenty of nuts of various stripes in my family, though.  Holy rollers like my gg on down to hippie pagans like my mother who did (and still does) believe in fairies and magic.

I envy you, man. In my family, when it became clear that I did not believe in God, there was a kerfuffle. I met with resistance. Granted, I didn't have a family of evangelicals or anything. My decision was pretty much respected, but still, there was alienation involved. Doesn't that tell you something about religion? Religion involves an implicit imperative that acts contrary to nature: "deny your loved ones for the sake of some ideal." This is amoral and counter-productive. But I guess Jesus was pretty upfront about this; he did say that he came with a sword to divide brother against brother or something like that.
