Not at all. I am not usually in a situation where I am the majority (theist belief wise anyway). When I am around a bunch of Christians I guess that I feel less at home, but I my beliefs conflict usually more with them than atheists.
I really like being in the minority. But if you stick around long enough you will notice that quite a few theists show up here, just not many have the ability to stick around. Like in the car business, many people get into it but only a few have thick enough skin to stick around.
Out of curiosity, why do you feel that we would be uncomfortable? Or that it would be a weird feeling?
