I'm simply going with my own experience and of those I knew well. I feel 
there is an element of despair, or something close to it, 'else why all the 
hostility to simple questions about different levels of existence? Note that 
I named no one here, so if you are living a happy godless life, then great. 
Honestly. I'm referring to those whose atheism is more like, dare I say it?, 
a religion. If this does not describe you, then I'm not talking about you, 
am I?
