Andrew Sullivan has posted his (apparently final) reply to Sam's last letter. You can read it on his Daily Dish blog.

Dear Rep. Stark:
Thank you for going on record as a nontheist!
For an elected official, in a nation that embraces faith as a virtue, your action took courage. By publicly acknowledging your absence of a god belief, you have made real, in the minds of countless other nontheists, the possibility that they too might seek to serve our country in positions of elected office, while honestly discussing matters of philosophy and religion. Thank you again for your courage and leadership.
Sincerely,
Michael A. Paver
