I suspect that this is no longer a "no responses from poopy face atheists" thread, but still I'm just going to make one post and pop back out.
Best of all, I think you'll like what I have to say.

I depend on Him to give me wisdom that education and secular information alone cannot provide.
As an atheist, I'm actually happy that Christianity gives meaning and purpose to your life. No one needs my approval to find meaning in their lives, and it does make me proud that we live in a country and culture (which includes our non-US democratic partners) where people can decide for themselves how to live their lives.
All that we atheists/agnostics/humanitarians/whatevers ask is that we find some common footing together. Most often this is found in our common ability to empathize, reason, and find justice in society. We may disagree. In fact, I can almost guarantee that we will disagree. But that's ok. As long as we all meet at the same table and try to talk things out while understanding both our human qualities and flaws, I think we will come out the other side in good shape.
With that, I will pop out of the discussion.
