We have theists at this website. They might simply be reading it and avoiding us because they'd get their asses handed to them. Not by me alone no, I am nowhere near a scientist, but we do have some big brains here.
Plus it also allows other atheists who might not be aware of certain scientists. I didn't know who Krauss was a few years ago.
I doubt that they're reading this from the shadows and that it has any effect on their religious convictions, but you do your thing if it makes you feel any better.
Never say never. This website also has former believers. Just because you don't see a sudden "You know guys, I was wrong" in the moment, does not mean the seed of doubt doesn't get planted. I used to believe myself.
