Well, I am an atheist and I 'like' logic, whatever that means in practise. I admit I may not be as versed in logical minutiae as may be taught in US schools, it was never something that got mentioned in my education. However, I can generally find my way around logical situations and I really enjoy solving logic-based problems and puzzles. What I do not enjoy is having assumptive conclusions drawn on my integrity and my honesty based on nothing more than my refusal to play silly presuppositional entrapment games.
