I have been an atheist for most of my life. In fact I'm not sure I ever believed, however I had to endure Religious Instruction at school as part of the Education Department curriculum.
My dad is an atheist and my mom is agnostic. All my brothers and sisters are atheists and almost all my friends and work colleagues are too.
I was married in the gardens of an old stately home by a celebrant.
I am fortunate that I live in a secular country where religious people are more likely to be considered odd-ball by the wider community.
I remember being in Atlanta in 1997 reading a weekend newspaper when I came across approximately 8 pages devoted to religion. Here we are may get one half page relating to religious news/groups etc.
I do feel for US atheists. They are truly a minority in what is considered a whacko Christian nation!
