Really? Because here, atheists and agnostics make the ideal bystanders who go "Fight! Fight! Fight!".

Fight! Fight! Fight!

In my 3 months here with almost 100% attendance I have yet to see 2 theists or a theist and a non-theist at "war" while other non-theists taunt. Maybe I need to sweep the boards or wait a bit longer for that.

Usually I see 2 people arguing (oftentimes theist vs non-theist) and then 3rd party non-theists usually interject with reasonable assessment which the theists do not appreciate. Then it becomes a 3-or-more-way argument.

But, if I saw 2 theists arguing on different religious terms, I would laugh, I admit.
