It would probably be fair to say that you and I both are only aware of a fraction of 1% of atheists, and that even in that limited sample size neither of us could claim some hard number as to cause or reason, eh (IOW...you're talking out of your ass about sample sizes and fractions of a percent. Apply your criticisms of others statements to your own...and when you're done, recall that no amount of someone else being wrong will make you right.)? I don't fit the particular profile you seem to require in order to discuss the issue. Just cant remember having ever believed in a god. Heard plenty of stories, love em.....I guess they never turned into anything more than stories in my mind. It would be great, if I could bs with with some line about how...as a 5year old, I read the arguments of yadda yadda and determined through rigorous application of reason that - gods are characters in stories......but that's not how it actually happened. Just how strange or rare do you think that is, really?
