1. What is your age? I can never remember; I think I was 43 last birthday.
2. Are you married? Kids? No and no. It's a sore point.
3. Are you angry or disappointed at "God"? No more than I am at Mickey Mouse. So quite a bit, then.
4. Do you subscribe to hedonism? If I had the money, probably.
5. Are you an atheist because you want to be, without eternal consequences, sexually promiscuous? A drug addict? An alcoholic? No, I'm an atheist because that's how God made me. Allegedly.
6. Do you like "psychedelic" music? Can't say I've ever been aware of any, so the answer's probably yes and no.
7. Was atheism "transmitted" to you from a "Marxist"? Not that I'm aware of.
8. Are you selfish? At least half the time. I derive the greatest pleasure from the pleasure I give others (ladies, take note).
9. Is your "community" centered around pornography? There's porn around, certainly, especially on my hard drive, but then there's much more of other things as well. So not really centred, no.
10. Is your atheism a political statement? No, my political views are a political statement. My atheism is my opinion of how the Universe works.
11. Were you recruited into atheism by the promises of sex and drugs? If I was, there's been a serious breach of contract.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
