I have never met an atheist who refused to take Christmas off without pay simply because of principle! Also I have never met an atheist who could explain his own belief without becoming overly emotional and in some cases close to hysterical!
To put it in terms that are easily understood liberalism is very close to atheism, some arguments for atheism range from the philosophical to social and historical approaches, but it remains just rationalization! And we all know that in psychology and logic, rationalization (also known as making excuses) is an unconscious defense mechanism in which perceived controversial behaviors or feelings are logically justified and explained in a rational or logical manner to avoid any true explanation, and are made consciously tolerable -- or even admirable and superior -- by plausible means.
Rationalization encourages irrational or unacceptable behavior, motives, or feelings and often involves ad hoc hypothesizing. This process ranges from fully conscious (e.g., to present an external defense against ridicule from others) to mostly subconscious (e.g., to create a block against internal feelings of guilt). So, atheism and liberalism are very much alike, therefore they are both mental disorders!
