In my experience, though, when someone feels the need to announce to a non-religious blogger that they too are non-religious (atheist, agnostic, agnostic atheist, what-have-you) they usually aren’t. They’re just trying to make their points seem more valid … apparently forgetting that a big part of why many of us are non-religious is that we don’t particularly care who is doing the talking, we care about the logic and the validity of the arguments themselves.
