What I'm saying is that from the looks of things, there's no reason to think Lemaitre's beliefs were anything other than what he claimed them to be.
It seems Jehanne is skeptical only because Lemaitre was intelligent. In which case he needs to examine his own prejudices and bigotry.
No, I am saying that Lemaitre was a product of his own day and time, and that, he may have been a closet atheist.
