Well I once tried to contact the god of deism but he didn't answer, and believing in him didn't do anything but give me a smug sense of self congratulations for deluding myself that I knew all the answers.
Does that count?
Only if NOT believing in him gave you a smug sense of self congratulation for how enlightened you are.

Oh you know, the one that is TOTALLY interested in them, and supports ALL their bigotries.
Some are lucky enough not to have needed such delusions so yeah, I guess they can feel pretty smug about being so grown up at such a young age
I think feeling pretty smug about how "grown up" they are is kinda oxymoronic. I'd rather meet a humble if misguided theist than a smug atheist. Although I'll grant you that a smug atheist is marginally less odious than a smug theist.
