IOW, business as usual.
Wouldn't change much in my life. Wouldn't be an atheist anymore - the term will have lost reasonable meaning. Still wouldn't be an adherent or acolyte of any religion.
It would change my life. Of course I would have to change my position, but what would really change is wanting to kick the deadbeat in the nuts even harder. But since you cant kick a god in the nuts anymore than you could kick Mickey Mouse in the nuts, this is nothing but mental masturbation.
