Thanks Halx for reminding me why I don't watch CNN, especially Paula Zahn. As an atheist I am selective about who I let know about it. I know that there are people who are intolerant of that and it would only lead to my demise. You can't use reason to persuade somebody out of a position they didn't use reason to arrive at that position. I found it funny that she said 1 to 3% without citing a source. Atheists are more "in the closet" than any other group. That is why you find so many online where they are anonymous and do not fear consequences from speaking their mind.

I recently watched a debate with a Muslim, Jew, and an atheist on CSpan or Cspan2, it was intelligent, thoughtful, and very educational. Did anyone else manage to see this?
