It's amazing how many atheists play the game right without bothering to look over their shoulders though, innit? I'm reminded me of a friend who died a few years ago. At his funeral, a religious service insisted on by his kin, the pastor regaled us with how he'd led such a good life by dint of his Christian values. He hated religion and would only go near a church for a wedding or funeral, and even then he never mouthed the prayers or mimed the hymns. Christian values my arse. He had his own values, and he was an exceptionally fine man.
