That is so true - which is both good and bad. It's also why I laugh at anyone who tries to define atheism as a "belief" or a "religion." We're just a bunch of people who happen to answer one question similarly. We have no dogma or doctrine - there is no atheist creed or official position. Yes, most of us tend to be liberal and progressive, but not all of us are.
