Glenn Beck’s site is still full of people who hate atheists, and I feel bad for them. Maybe we should go balance out their poll.

Absolutely. 19.72%

No way. 74.35%

I’m in the middle on this one. 5.93%

Since PZ posted the above call for balance, the numbers have shifted substantially. Any DUers care to play, too?

ETA: If you DO go to The Blaze to check out the poll - also check out the comments section. I found this gem:

Atheists came in just behind Muslims. I personally wouldn‘t want an atheist but it probably couldn’t be much worse than the Muslim we have in there now!

UPDATE: Minutes later, the tide has turned. The Blaze poll now reads, "Absolutely" would vote for an atheist is in the MAJORITY.
