I don't think anybody claimed that his atheism was some grander indication of what is objective truth of the matter, and I've just gone through the entire thread.

Would you mind quoting where anyone said as much? Otherwise, I'm calling bullshit.

If that is your position...good! I agree. If everyone agrees, then very good. If you need to declare some kind of victory and call bullshit... so be it. I’m not going to fight with you about something meaningless.

As I said before to bring up his atheism.... if he or another is making a claim, the the question is why. If they are not making some kind of claim, then the question is why is that important.
