That's funny ... when I got to the point in life when I thought to
attach a label to what I was, I decided on "non-theist," since for me,
religion is not something that is a part of my life, one way or the
other.  I don't argue for or against a god.  I just don't consider it.

As I've said previously, having been raised Catholic, I always expect
the big guy to strike me down one day, but I kind of like what Woody
Allen says in "Stardust Memories":  "To you I'm an atheist -- to [God] 
I'm the loyal opposition."
