Because in other words, atheists and theists are people, not a "way of life" that automatically makes you smart or stupid.
Just some thoughts.
1) I kinda use the Mandelbrot Set.
2) Why are you still here?

That is clearly a lie, otherwise you wouldn't be a theist.

I'm as thinking as one can be for an inbred uneducated theist, let's say, 
And, also, a lie is an intentionally false statement, so even if I am wrong it's not like I'm trying to deceive you.
