The Cost of Being Convinced

I have been an atheist since my childhood. Soon after I stopped believing in the original version of Santa Claus (Sinterklaas), I stopped believing in gods. For a while after that, I became a real atheist missionary. It does not seem to work very well.

"There is no God and I am his prophet." is one of my favorite statements about religion, but you have to be very careful about when to say it.
