^This.
Most Athiests I know are usually either, weirdos, emos, pseudo intellectuals, or people that are asocial or generally bitter.
My theory is that they don't have much of a social life, so they adopt the role of the person that sticks out like a sore thumb. In this, they feel like they're smarter than everyone else who follows convention, because they don't. Much like a hipster. Most of these people I talk to about these things usually don't put any stock in what they advocate. O__O

I'm sure there are people that are doing it to not fit in (though that seems indiotic to me) but I've noticed far too many of my scientific colleagues being atheist to really think that that's the only reason you can become one. Sometimes it's just the natural decision after looking at everything as logically as you can. As a scientist, if I spend every day looking for proof of how things work it's tough to then go home and then believe in something that is solely based on faith. Just doesn't jive with me.
