Hmm …

… Maverick Philosopher: Atheists, Anti-Philosophers, and Anti-Idealists: The 'One X Further' Meme.

"We are all atheists about most of the gods that societies have believed in." Really? First all, societies don't believe in anything. Individuals do. If most individuals in a given society believe in something, that society may be characterized accordingly. But it is the individuals' belief that is decisive. As for not believing in most gods, I'm not so sure of that, either. One could argue — indeed, I would argue — that there is some truth to most of the notions of deity man has arrived at.
