I think you're grossly overgeneralising theists too.
What is important to people who don't believe in Bigfoot, in general?
I see your point. My fear here is to mis-represent the Atheist community in some silly way that I hadn't considered.
As an example prior to this conversation I truly though Atheists in general placed science on a pedastal in the same way Christians place God on one. Now I know not to make that mistake.
Maybe it doesn't even matter, we're talking about one character in the whole book so it's probably a non-issue, but I do want to write a believable character that MOST atheists can identify with. That's the whole point of this.

Absolutely, I wasn't implying that you wouldn't.
