But you haven't given us any reason for believing that the question is
either interesting or complicated. I can easily say that the question of
the large five-legged invisible frog sitting in my kitchen is
complicated and interesting, but I doubt that anyone would pay much
attention to me.
And why can't you say "atheists" rather than "rabid atheists"? Are atheists "rabid" by definition? If not, what is the difference between an "ordinary atheist" and a "rabid atheist"? You are throwing pejorative labels around without making any serious attempt to lay out, even crudely, the grounds for that kind of labelling.
