I so desperately wish there was a way to work this conversation to my own advantage.
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.'

I'm going to make a completely biased statement and say I've never met a more loving "labeled" people than all the atheists I've met in the last 3 years.

Well, it's true - with a few exceptions of course. I think not believing in a heaven or afterlife makes people more willing to be vocal about their affection and appreciation for their friends, family and fellow man.

This might seem so silly and trite especially in the grand scheme of things, what with real life being as big and scary as it is, and I really don't want this to become a mutual-appreciation society, but what I'm about to say comes right from the heart. Apart from one or two people I've known in person, only one of which still stands by me and supports me over the loss of the other, all of the people I count as friends are on the other end of this internet connection; and in many case, the other side of the world. Summer, please believe me that you have made my day. Group hug? Pwetty pweeze?
And I still want to turn this to my physical advantage... (I think 5th expressed it best)

That's me in the middle, in blue. Are you the pink one, Summer?
