They are usually the same type of persons who find themselves in and out of faith their entire life. But if you are asking for verifiable resources, I have nothing but experience to offer.

So your entire screed is based on your creation of a fictitious class of being you dub pseudo-atheists. This creation is in turn only based on a handful of personal relations referencing the work of renowned atheists; a fair assumption since you admitted that you did not refute the claims of said atheists. It seems to me that you are taking the position that you properly consider atheist arguments from popular sources, but others aren't properly skeptical and are intellectually lazy to the point of accepting arguments solely on an assumed fealty to authority.

Packed with unverified assumptions, your arguments come across as those of an elitist desperately attempting to justify an unsubstantiated intellectual superiority.

This entire response is ironic.

You've made quite the astounding conclusions as to the motivation to the post before you thought to ask the appropriate questions.

"your arguments come across as those of an elitist desperately attempting to justify an unsubstantiated intellectual superiority." -------Ask me what I am attempting to do, I dare you.
