Thanks! I'm originally from Tuscaloosa, AL. I moved up here a couple years back, and have been doing great ever since. The economy here is incredible, and there's plenty of other atheists. I'd say one in three.

Do you think its safe to say that active atheists mostly are ex theists and people hurt by religion?

I've always wanted to use this in conversation:
"One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas, I don't know. Then we tried to remove the tusks. The tusks. That's not so easy to say. Tusks. You try it some time. As I say, we tried to remove the tusks. But they were embedded so firmly we couldn't budge them. Of course, in Alabama the Tuscaloosa, but that is entirely ir-elephant to what I was talking about."
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.'

Do you have an elephant in your pants or are you just happy to see me?

Welcome Coral Peach! I have nothing else to add since Stimbo topped all with Groucho quote.
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!
