Hey Duck,
I agree with you about the fanatics on BOTH sides of the belief aisle. They are ruining it for everyone. And yes, comparitively speeking, it IS tiny. Take into consideration the population. Broken down, non-believers are a very small minority. At least the ADMITTED non-believers anyway.
As for the revisionist remark. If you read the Constitution, there are numerous references to GOD. Same with the Bill of Rights. Example: how about there are certain inailiable rights endowed by our Creator. I probably didn't get it exactly right, or spell so good, but I got the jist of it right. Get a copy of those two documents from the web and read up. See ya.
