“When I say I realized I was an atheist when I was a teenager, I’m simplifying things a bit, because I was always an atheist. My big revelation wasn’t so much a realization that I was an atheist as it was a realization that other people weren’t.”

This quote was brought to you by our discussions of churchgoing at work. My coworker was totally cool with my being an atheist, because he’s one too, but he was also puzzled by the idea that I had been raised that way. Who knew atheism could be the default setting?

I seem to be an oddity in these here parts: raised atheist, later turned agnostic, in a "pretty sure there's something out there but hell if I know what" kind of way. Never have seen any compelling reason that logic, science, and all those other beautiful things that make society tick can't coexist peacefully with religion. It continues to confound me that people insist that they're mutually exclusive - from either side of the debate.
