You are again wrong. The most exposure I have ever had to atheists is right here on FR which surprised me. I would have expected atheists to be democrats.

Not all the people who accepted the Copernican solar system are atheists, and most of the people who accept evolution are not atheists. It took hundreds of years for the Copernican shape of the cosmos to saturate the common perception. And during all that time, the earth revolved around the sun, regardless of what people believed.

Exactly why would you expect atheists to be democrats? Or is this just more bigotry? The association between Republicanism and Christianity (particularly fundamentalist Christianity) in the US is a comparatively modern phenomenon. Perhaps you don't realise that in many countries round the world it is Christianity and Socialism that march hand-in-hand.

Some democrats are atheists. You really do live in an 'either or' world.
