The balance of evidence suggests there is no God. The balance of evidence suggests that life evolved (and is evolving) without an intelligent driver. Belief in God or creationism requires a leap of faith much greater than that which assumes 'if I throw this ball in the air, it will more than likely fall to the ground.'
Hence, I am an atheist; I don't dye my hair green. In the UK, saying your an atheist isn't a particularly brave or anti-establishment thing to do. From your initial post am I incorrect to surmise that in the USA, such a stance is an unusual one to take when one is in the public eye?
