Is being an atheist important to you?

[Dr H]

That pretty much sums up how I feel about it.

For most of my adult life I didn't go seeking out other atheists, and I almost never brought it up unless someone specifically wanted to discuss it with me.

Ironically, it was a couple years of arguing with an on-line Christian apologist that motivated me to seek out fora like this.  One can put up with only so much.  

Was the apologist's initials DM? I used to make him so mad at me.

LOL.  As a matter of fact, they were.
