Here we go... The discussion starts with practicing Christians and gets confused with the polls of those who think there must be something spiritual. Easy when you know how eh?

Best part is, even many who would be comfortable being classed as Christian "don't actually believe in it"according to myriad polls. Recent polls are available on the secular society website according to a mate who takes his secularism seriously. I wouldn't know, I just know that the vast majority of people in The UK don't go to church, don't believe in fantasy and use churches for traditional reasons only.

Tell you what though. I did just have a look on a Christian website, and found that the number of churches closing and the rise in population at the same time says it all. The same odious site notes the rise in the number of mosques and sees that as worrying. Rational people meanwhile see their worry as worrying....

Doing a poll of people on their way out of church and extrapolating it to the general population isn't the most scientific method available, is it? Even then, a hilarious number profess to be too intelligent to go in for the superstitious side of things. A few bishops in that number too.

In any event, how many "militant atheists" are there?

Try not to include decent people who only question why a small number of the population think they can influence law and be above the law in some areas on account of their imaginary friend. That isn't being anti religious. That's merely pointing out that you need to win elections on your ticket before others can be bound by your nonsense. Even then, politicians are not likely to let superstition interfere too much. When a UKIP politician pointed out that the floods are God's judgement on gay people, every mainstream political party pointed out he was off his rocker. The church meanwhile kept quiet..

The term God delusion is an interesting one. Most god botherers try telling us that most people in the country share their delusion. really?

Er.. No. Of course they don't. I'll have to stop before I piss myself laughing.
