Are the churches using atheists to gain more converts?

[Esquilax]

I think most theists in America are fairly secular. They claim religion because they don't want to disappoint their mother. But they don't practice the religion or think much about whether or not they really believe. People think America is super religious but it's just because our comparatively small group of fundies and evangelicals is very loud.

Studiously not thinking about one's religious beliefs or their consequences- yet somehow thinking one knows anyway- is pretty much the American evangelical past time, really.
