Cool video...famous atheists

Mathematician

Reason, and reason again
Good video! I especially loved the statistics slides.

Atheists, being a moderate proportion of the USA population (about 8-16%) are disproportionately less numerous in the prison population (0.21%)

Japan (the most atheistic nation in the G-8) has the lowest murder rate while the United States (the most Christian nation in the G-8) has the highest. Japan used to have much stronger religious faith, and a state religion, and guess what: Japan was remarkably aggressive and militaristic when "Shinto" was at its peak, and during WW2, when its Emperor was regarded as a God.

Any coincidence that most of the examples mentioned are science geeks? There were a few actors at the end, but why can't more cool people be Atheists? It makes me wonder, are people Atheists because they are smart, or because they are liberal? Know any Atheists who are neither smart nor liberal?
