"Remember that atheists are a minority in every country."

That's debatable. Have you got any evidence to back up that statement, Keith? Off the top of my head and, admittedly, without evidence to hand, I thought that, in this country (UK) at least, church attendance has been falling, consistently, for decades?

And priests are a minority in every country ... so to follow your 'logic' we must ignore them too!

"You express contempt for religious belief, but many believers are even more intelligent than you!"

There are lots of people more intelligent than me Keith (why, there may be some who are even more intelligent than you!)but does that mean that I should not have an opinion? Are people with exceptionally high IQs the only ones entitled to an opinion?

I also wonder what mental gymnastics one has to go through to be both intelligent and gullible?
