I know that proclaiming that atheists were (for the most part) pro-Obama would only hurt his chances for candidacy. So we were largely silent. Not anymore.
I am so incredibly, incredibly happy that we’ve elected an official whose mother was an atheist, whose father was an atheist who actually understands the meaning of “separation of church and state”
To all of you fundies out there who loudly proclaim that we are a “Christian” nation, I salute you. I salute you with the idea that the policies and ideals of this country might actually be influenced by science rather than superstition.
Oh and, this guy sums up my feelings on the issue with much more flair than I can: RudePundit . Scroll down to the 11/05/2008 post.

America isn’t a Christian nation. They may use the words God, Bless, Jesus in their speeches and what not but God isn’t included in all aspects of American society. I’m a Christian and it gets up my back to see American politicians pretend to be godly for the sake of a few extra votes.
True; many friends of mine have softened their religious beliefs as they get older and begin to think more independently.Even my fundamentalist parents have back-pedaled from some of their most absurd beliefs in recent years!
