Are all atheists this ill-informed about religion?
RE: Are all atheists this ill-informed about religion?
You are correct, godz...except for the date.  It was 2010.

Quote:Survey: Atheists, Agnostics Know More About Religion Than Religious

And they explain why.....which religitards will never want to hear.

Quote:Why are Atheists and Agnostics better informed? The Los Angeles Times quotes one of the researchers who has a theory:
Quote:American atheists and agnostics tend to be people who grew up in a religious tradition and consciously gave it up, often after a great deal of reflection and study, said Alan Cooperman, associate director for research at the Pew Forum.

"These are people who thought a lot about religion," he said. "They're not indifferent. They care about it."
Also interesting is that Black Protestants and Latino Catholics scored at the bottom of the survey.
