You are conflating faith with acceptance. I don’t believe in science I accept science as fact and do not accept superstition as anything more than superstition. I don’t have a belief that there is no god I simply have no evidence to support their existence. If there were evidence to support the existence of a supreme being then there would no longer be any need for faith.

Which takes me back to my first point. Believing there is no god is not the same as "no religion." The survey has clearly delineated the two seeing as the atheist group is 3% and other surveys have shown "no religion/religious affilitation" to be as high as 30%

Your first point is wrong, you repeating it doesn't make it more true.

Look at the data in this thread. How can you say im wrong? 3% vs 30% is not a rounding error. These surveys clearly delineate between "no religion" and "atheist"

Shit, even just google it
