Not really a "famous" saying...but a known one...and a bit targeted for a certain audience....but we get your cynicism....you know cynicism right?...its an ancient belief system that still bangs around these days in the vacuous space between atheist's ears.

Geez, subs, that's very cynical.

Not that I'm aware of. Given that, if the presence of cynicism speaks to a 'vacuous space' between one's ears, then your comment would indicate that the issue would not be limited to 'atheists'.

No, it is not a condition limited to atheists, but is a characteristic most prevalent among atheists for sure...in fact it might be a prerequisite.
