Atheist Charlatan

You might be even worse than a plant. I don't think there is a word for someone who feints the absence of belief.

Hym "That's the important bit, is it? That religion makes people go 'yay?' Get the fuck out of here. You're an atheist charlatan, Alex. You feint the absence of belief so you can proselytize from the other end. The 'fruits' of Christianity IS the act of Christians taking credits for higher-order abstractions. Forgiveness? Buddhism has doctrine about forgiveness. Hinduism has it. Ok. Maybe not. Maybe atheist charlatan is a bit of a stretch.... Nope. Nope. I'm right. You get paid to sit there and 'Oh well I don't know. Everything is just so nebulous!' And you hym and haw and say 'Is it really the claim the creator of the universe spoke to a guy in direct dialogue... Or is it the friends we made along the way?' And we're all worse off for it."
