“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 think it would be insulting to get baptized, even when I have no belief in the religion just for a "just in case" scenario.
And depending on the denomination, adult baptism is just supposed to be symbolic of, or parallel to, something happening internally. So from that perspective, getting baptised "just in case" is seriously missing the point.
