Like any religion, atheism will continue long past the point rational people have concluded that it requires an unwaranted leap of faith.
Nevertheless, so long as someone suggests that there may be something out there that cannot be measured and has some impact upon humanity, there will be an atheist there to say, "Be serious."
On the plus side, I have never had an atheist knock on my door while I was in the tub and try to hand me a copy of the latest Dawkins essay, so they have that going for them.
/ Now watch the atheists fulminate that I called it a religion, and note the dead certainty, the fiery rhetoric, and the affronted air of Pat Robertson on a Vegas "fact-finding" mission.
Can't we all just agree that whether or not there is a God, it's just not going to matter to some people, and will consume the entire life and being of others, and that's just the way the human psyche is?
