Haha I'm another atheist with an altar at home! Instead of religious symbols, there are framed pictures of ancestors.

Normally in Asia we worship at these altars (usually involving serving food and drinks), but I don't do that. I just see it as a nice reminder of the memories I've had with all those people, and a connection to the past.

...although the idea you can crack open a beer with your ancestors from time to time is sort of neat.
