Fair enough. Then I will amend and say, a good representation of all athiests I personally know (a small number to be sure) and it seems, present company excluded.

Well said.

BTW, I would guess that there are very few actual atheists in America (I only know a few, myself). Surveys show a steady 85% to 90% rate of Americans who profess a belief in God, and a further 5% or so who profess to believe in "some higher power". The percentage of Americans who claim atheism or agnosticism has always been less than 5% in every poll I've seen.

And I don't think the numbers are going to change much in any direction in the near future.
