1) It's called irony. MM isn't making a big thing of himself. Some OTHER person stuck that on him. He's using it as a tag-line.
2) I am not a Christian, but I do believe in God. I get along with MM just fine, despite the fact that he and I have different beliefs. What's YOUR excuse?

How does atheism = liberalism? If MM is living (as I believe him to be) in a moral fashion and embracing conservative principals, does the fact that he is not a practicing Christian or Jew invalidate him?
I figure he's a much "better" Conservative than I am!
You seem to be very defensive and potentially hostile to someone who openly calls themself an atheist.
Why do you need to be so nervous? Is he really a threat?
How strong Is your Faith?
