You don't seem to be able to quit it with the assumptions, do you? Why do you assume that atheism is merely the result of a need for popularity? Or do you think of all soteriological positions as merely fashion choices?
Because that'd be an interesting reason to pick a religious position, but it wasn't the reason any of us did, and how dare you intimate that it was?
