Well I'm a rightish pothead. I'm comfortable with the label libertarian but more comfortable with the label conservative, just because I think it's funny to be a conservative Atheist. But yeah I agree that some conservative Christians feel the need to make atheists their total enemy by pretending that they disagree with them on everything. I think a lot of conservative Atheists are also not that into their Atheism, they are more just casual Atheists, not really the firebrand type that these forums get. I'm fairly apolitical and more into religious and philosophical issues than political one. Also a forum member I talk to privately told me that they know lots of conservative Atheists but that they tend to be far more likely to be in the closet than others.
Sometimes also I don't readily express my more conservative beliefs on here because I know this forum is full of you liberals and I don't want to miss out on the kudos.
