Over the years, many atheists and agnostics have enjoyed mocking Christians and people of religion who choose to believe in God. The most frequent criticism is that belief in God is unscientific, therefore it is foolish.

I find it amusing how easily non-believers will toss off their icons and excuse it as "dementia" the moment they take a position they don't like.
