Why would being an atheist have anything to do with friendship?

Nope. Atheists don't believe in friendship, dragonfruit, or the color orange.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Friendship is not subject to a partial order, so the question is meaningless.
Also, realize the difference between a 'maximal' element (which exists for any partial order on a finite set) and a 'largest' element (which may not, if there are multiple maxima).

I know where this pile is going. It would be nice if the 'arguments' weren't so damned predictable.

I only pretend to be friendly.... hoomans souls taste so much better after a heaping portion of betrayal.
When I am not "being" friendly, I'm kicking puppies, kittens, and small children.
