I am not answering your question for you. The answer is really supposed to be a personal affirmation rather than any appeal to an objective fact. The reason for this is that like any group of self-selected people, identity is more important than activity.(of course if you are the complete opposite of strident, or not an atheist in any sense, you do have to be rejected) The question is really "do you identify as a strident atheist?". You probably do, otherwise you wouldn't bother, however, I only pushed one person in who didn't ask, and that was mostly to mess with that person.

We serve any selection of bread you want instead of just cardboard crackers. Even sourdough or buttermilk.

If you replace the ritualistic consumption of bread as a symbol for consuming the flesh of Jesus (God wants us to eat him?) with chips and dip, I'm in.

That's the dealbreaker for me.

Put me down as a member too, dude. One question, though; Why strident? I understand it's about not being forced to back down from your position, but doesn't it also imply that we're being dicks?

I refer the right honourable gentleman to the Team America argument for being a dick.
