We Are All Atheists

All devout believers are atheists about other religions. Evangelical Christians are atheists vis-a-vis Islam. And Muslims are atheists vis-a-vis Christianity.


Yet, the stigma on the term "atheist" remains. Politicians who proclaim atheism lose elections. There is one California congressman who's a professed atheist, but the other 434 claim to be religious believers. How many politicians really believe in religion is an open question. The answer is unknown, but I would guess the percentage is fairly small. Maybe some will leave diaries.
