Tiny little quibble here, and i am not making judgments about people's spelling in general, but if one is going to be an atheist, shouldn't one be able to spell "atheist"? "athiest" looks like a superlative, not a declaration or irreligiosity! (to be fair, i see christians declare themselves "christains" all the time!)

It's texting never stressed the little stuff that gives you heartburn

it is not about texting and i was not complaining about bad spelling in general -- just one word we choose to use to identify ourselves in the context of this site. it bespeaks a lack of attention. that goes well beyond texting, or even spelling.
