Deceptive headline: the stat refers to one in four who do not attend church.
The entire article is very sloppily written.
We have 3 former athiests attending our church right now. All 3 were saved just in the last year. One you would never haved guessed he was an athiest before. In one of our Sunday School lessons he said that he always felt there was a God but didnt want to admit it because of his friends who were also athiests. He also said that other athiests sometimes felt that way but would never admit it for fear of ridicule and that atheism was like a religion in itself....
