Haymaker
You are one of life’s enjoyers, determined to get the most you can out of your brief spell on Earth. Probably what first attracted you to atheism was the prospect of liberation from the Ten Commandments, few of which are compatible with a life of pleasure. You play hard and work quite hard, have a strong sense of loyalty and a relaxed but consistent approach to your philosophy.You can’t see the point of abstract principles and probably wouldn’t lay down your life for a concept though you might for a friend. Something of a champagne humanist, you admire George Bernard Shaw for his cheerful agnosticism and pursuit of sensual rewards and your Hollywood hero is Marlon Brando, who was beautiful, irascible and aimed for goodness in his own tortured way.
Sometimes you might be tempted to allow your own pleasures to take precedence over your ethics. But everyone is striving for that elusive balance between the good and the happy life. You’d probably open another bottle and say there’s no contest.

I'm a haymaker, too!
I had trouble with the scarves in school question, though. I wanted to say yes for different reasons than the ones they gave.
Doh! Me too!
I'm a bit disturbed that I obviously think the same way as Styley. I feel it smacks of slavishly pandering to one's spouse.
I'll have to develop some provocative ideas so we can have some healthy debate.
Actually, I'm surprised that I ended up the same as her - I'm pretty sure she would have answered most of the questions differently from me.
Talk to me! (You know you want to!)
