You seem to see any discussion of the concept of god or jesus in the abstract as people trying to show how smart they are and so on.
we do not have a true separation, though certainly better than many countries. Adding "under god" to the pledge or allegiance is a perfect example of religious special interests being rewarded despite separation of church and state.
as a religious man, how are you in a position to state what an athiest believes and does not believe, or why?

It's a definitional thing ... by definition, an atheist does not believe in God as he or she holds there is no God. And, it is a total rejection, so to speak. Therefore, I can say if someone states that they do not believe in God (or any god to use other's wording), they probably fall into the atheist camp.
As for the multi-quote deal, where in the corner is there a button? I just failed multi-quote 101 again ...
