The title of the thread is a "no duh", because atheism is not an issue of academics. "Atheist" merely describes a position on one issue. "Atheist" does not automatically make one good or bad, educated or uneducated. It is merely a word used to describe one's position.

Our species has always been a range of labels and degrees of education and has always been capable of rational and irrational behavior, NOT BECAUSE OF LABELS, but because we are, and have always been the same species as part of the same evolution.

"The New Atheism" by Victor Stenger, describes our common evolution in that human behavior is label independent.
