They are in fact a very vocal and significant contingent, and, if the poll is any indication, quite possibly a majority. Thank you, your participation has been most helpful.
I think you're overlooking the phenomenon of self-selection, which skews polls.
I didn't answer your poll, and I know of at least one other agnostic atheist in this thread who hasn't, for largely the same reason.
Loudness does not equal a majority.
