Huh? There is no such thing as an "atheist" priest. If you want to argue there are atheists who can be dogmatic about a position, I could go for that.

But on an official level of organization, we have no central figure we worship like the Pope, or an Imam or Dali Lama.

Yes there certainly ARE intelligent theists. But that does not mean they have evidence for the god they claim.

We were talking about Catholic priests who somewhere along the line stopped believing. Tongue
