The religion someone is a member of only tells you about their professed beliefs. It gives no indication as to whether they actually believe any of them. A person is an atheist if they actually don't believe in God, regardless of what they profess.
In this way, there are probably a very high number of atheist Christians. The reasons for this will vary of course.
I agree
