*and so on ad infinitum
I extend that to 99,999...* % = 100 %.
Also, "most of us are atheists towards all but one of Humanity's gods throughout History. Some of us just go one god further." (Richard Dawkins).
There are an infinite number of gods to atheistic about (Thor, the Flying Spaghetti Monster, Amon Ra, Zeus, etc. etc.). Yes, infinite, because I just invented an infinite number of them. For every god I can think of, I can think of another one.
So Dawkins' "all but one" translates as 99,999...* % of all gods.
Which equates to 100%.
Hence we are all atheists towards all gods, even if we believe in one (because frankly, which one do you pick?).
Let us not forget the god who only rewards people who don't believe in it.
And so it goes on and once more, again and repeatedly.

0,999...=1 is not only accepted but there are proofs - cf. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/0.999... which is a featured article.
Your point (that I helped you to formulate, remember ?) is an interesting curiosity which I would not really know how to refute, but I do not value it more than most leading theologians value Oolon Colluphid's argument about the babelfish. ;-)
@+
Oolon Colluphid and the babl fish are fictitious. This isn't. Your turn.
What about agnostics?
You forgot about them, eh.
And speaking as a firmly established and life-long (from the giddy heights of my almost-seventeen-years)member of the Anglican Church... THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD.
And you shall all burn in hell. Ya bunch of Bacca atheists...
'Nuff sed.
This assertion is false: So Dawkins' "all but one" translates as 99,999...* % of all gods.
That is not a valid translation of Dawkins' comment.
why should we bother about gods as none of em exists and we invented them just because we were afraid to be mere pieces of rotten meat when we're dead. then it's no more "humans", rather "corpses".
anyway religion come along with hypocrisis and bigotr which i hate. so i hate and refute every single religion existing, except for the god of science and truth; still there is none either >_<
OK Xouper, you got me. That is the weak link in the chain. But still on the scale of my world, getting a3_nm to be officially stumped fo this long is quite a feat. Well spotted.
As for agnosticism, Steph... well just you wait and blseed.
