I was militant in my atheism at the beginning. Challenging people to arguments and being an irritating nuisance. I've outgrown that, and have adopted a live-and-let-live stance as long as people don't forcefully intrude upon the lives of others. I more-or-less conform to classical liberal notions of where your rights end and others' begin. I have, in my wanderings, discovered other secret apostates (haven't revealed my leaving to parents or people within a view degrees of separation from them). We tend to encapsulate the meaning of living a double life.

Edit: I'd more accurately be described as an agnostic with Christian sympathies. Reverse-proselytizing is just as irritating to people as the opposite, so I generally refrain from doing that.
