I guess my point is that it doesn’t embarrass me that S.E.Cupp claims not to believe in the same thing I don’t believe in, because what we share is the absence of a belief, rather than a belief.

I’m also not embarrassed when someone who, like me, doesn’t believe in Santa Claus makes an ass of him/herself in public.

See what I mean? Not trying to be oppositional, it just seems odd that her alleged absence of belief should be seen as something that links us.
