is the above figure atheistic or theistic?
I have no idea who that might be and could not care less about his personal superstitions or lack of them.(nor indeed those of anyone else)

Attempting to classify people by their religious views is a granfalloon.

Quote:A granfalloon, in the fictional religion of Bokononism (created by Kurt Vonnegut in his 1963 novel Cat's Cradle), is defined as a "false karass." That is, it is a group of people who outwardly choose or claim to have a shared identity or purpose, but whose mutual association is actually meaningless.
