I'm sure there are lots of religious people who've read the Bible from start to finish and kept their faith, but in my self-selected sample, all the people I know who have done that are atheists.

We should certainly hope that those who believe in belief are wrong, because belief is waning fast, and the props are beginning to buckle. Daniel Dennett
