Why do Atheists stand alone?

[automan]

The short answer is, Atheists don't NEED anyone to confirm what they think is true,
Religious people on the other hand NEED lots of people to confirm what they think is true.

I wonder what the percentage of atheist children who had an atheist parent who was active in a "skeptic society" (or any other philosophical nontheistic society) would join that society and be active in it too.

That's a very good point. My guess is that parents of atheists who participated in skeptic societies would be much more likely to join a skeptic society themselves.

Consider that many atheists in America had religious parents, and so they were not raised in a such a nontheistic organization.

Count me among that group.
