I've been surprised by how many (supposedly) thinking adults are willing to admit that their conclusions considering the existence of God are the same as those of a lizard.
"Yes, as an atheist, my beliefs concerning the existence of God are the same as those of a bicycle."
It's not a conclusion, but a condition.
And it would be more accurately expressed as, 'The state of my non-belief in God is exactly the same as that of a bicycle.'
