Why bother, theists lose their shit when you tell them there was never any specific reason or that it's not because you haven't seen evidence that has convinced you of something that made you an atheist, either. It's almost as if nothing that ends with -"and that's why I'm not in your club" is going to satisfy. As though the existence of an atheist is an argument against their god and to be handled by those same arguments, despite the plain and brute fact that none of them apply. I get it from a psychological point of view. We expect the assent of our peers, and feel as though we have cause to doubt ourselves when we don't possess it. God botherers are bothered by the notion of "genuine" atheism..as this thread swirls putridly around..because it doesn't fit in their universe. It suggests that they've got something wrong.
Hell, the reason that you don't find me in a church...when you don't find me in a church..which is far less often than some people might imagine - doesn't even have anything to do with whether or not gods exist. I could be dead wrong about gods not existing, and that wouldn't matter. It doesn't change anything for me. Just as...I strongly suspect, figuring out they were wrong about christ wouldn't actually matter much to a given christian.

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
