RE: Why are you an atheist?

Padraic:

In my limited experience in answering that question it seems that a lot of the time, those asking it are genuinely interested in why I don't believe.

I.E it's not a lead in to some hostile conversion attempt, but mere curiosity/incredulence -- similar to the reasons why I ask why believers believe.

I imagine that it the situation is different each time either question is asked, but that's what I've learnt.
