why would you say that in the first place?
I wouldn't...but when pressed into saying I'm not religious and am an atheist, it's what I'm saying without having to. When I say that I'm an atheist and then have to explain what that means (not surprisingly most religious folks have no idea what atheists actually think), people immediately start with, "You must think I'm an idiot!" I'm not labeling anyone...when someone says something like that I automatically know that they've worked the math out in their heads by assuming what their feelings would be towards those who they would run across that believe something which to them would appear as silly as their religious beliefs seem to me.

oh yeah, because reading your response 'between the lines' you are smug in your belief that you are right and they are wrong.
Case in point.
I've gone out of my way any number of times in this thread, and in countless other threads on here to point out that I do not think religious people on the whole are stupid. I don;t agree with them, because I think they believe a stupid thing.
I guess you could say I love the believer but hate the belief?

I think many non-atheists see atheists as pompous, when they try to act like the guy who knows how the magic trick is done while others continue to gawk. Problem is, at the end of the day they don't know how this all started or where it's headed any more than the theists. They each choose to believe in what they are comfortable with.
ETA: Crossfitters and Vegans are still worse than atheists. Far worse.
