Never atheist. Never been. Always been a little agnostic
  though., even when religion hopping, in a monastery for a bit, I
  mean I tried. But atheist? Never interested me. Never hated the
  concept of God, never really believed it per se. Could be. Might
  not be. I don't know. It'd be nice. == Of course there's a
  spectrum Brett. Again, I was speaking about why atheism wasn't
  something I ever seriously considered. I suppose I'm bigoted.
  When I encounter someone who declares their atheism (it's
  important to them), at some point I have to justify-myself. Does
  that mean all atheists in the world would ask me to justify
  myself? I don't know. I don't have a full spectrum sample size.
  But it's just not my cup of tea. It's what keeps me out of
  politics generally too. When someone says "I'm democrat", I have
  to justify my politics. If someone says "I'm republican", same.
  if someone says, "I'm Christian", I SOMETIMES have to justify
  myself if they're evangelizing. ==
