Not to burst any bubbles, but it's pretty unlikely that Holmes was an atheist. There are references in the  chronicles of Holmes 'going down to chapel' and saying that flowers in bloom were the best evidence for Providence. Given that his family was originally French and his use of the word 'chapel' as opposed to 'church', Holmes was probably a Catholic.

No one mentioned Daniel Radcliffe. He'd be somewhere on my list. Oh, and Stephen Hawking.

I used to be a huge fan but now dislike his arrogance. 

My favorite atheist now is Sam Harris.

Yeah, me too, and not just what he has to say about atheism.
This is not a gay thing, but I love the sound of his voice and all his mannerisms, his choice of vocabulary, the way he thinks.
I just think he's a really great guy.

I meant the one in the Sherlock series, though I doubt a man like Holmes would have been religious in a different era or written by a different author. I've read all of those books I don't know how many times. He made reference to god, or at least "creation" as well. I realize I should have been more clear. Anyway, the Sherlock in Sherlock is an even better Sherlock than Doyle's Sherlock if only because he's more modern.

That's fair, although I take umbrage at a 'better' Sherlock.
