Greetings from a lifelong atheist!

Welcome Iro

With all that atheist practice, you must be pretty good at it by now.
Has the quality of  your not believing in any god or gods today improved
over your not believing in any god or gods 20 years ago?
Has your God shaped hole gotten any bigger?  I think mine is a little more orange.

Perhaps I misspoke when I said 'lifelong' a bit.
Basically since I was about...4, I was always in the 'reindeers can't fly' camp when it came to Santa Claus, for example. My primary school was still fairly religious, we would sing hymns and christian songs daily in assembly. My religious views were more or less an extremely thin intellectual film that I finally broke through before I reached double figures. I remember flipping through a children's illustrated bible and thinking "this is BS" (or whatever equivalent phrase I used back then before I leant swears).
I wouldn't say I have a 'God-shaped hole', any more than I have a 'Vishnu-shaped hole' or a 'Ba'al-shaped hole'. If I did, I would feel concerned and consult with my doctor to see if it was susceptible to infection
