re: #6 CuriousLurker

I wonder why there’s such a strong bias against atheists?

Assuming the source used for the Wiki page is accurate, it can’t all be religious if 83% of Americans claim to belong to a religious denomination, but only(!) 49% claim they wouldn’t vote for an atheist.

I’m somewhat surprised to see Jewish fall between Baptist and Hispanic given that, according to the FBI stats for 2009, 71.9% of religious hate crimes were due to anti-Jewish bias. And that leaves out the more subtle and widespread forms of anti-Semitism.

Because we’re frightening!
OOGA BOOGA!
