Apparently my comments yesterday on the taxonomy of atheists weren't clear. A thoughtful reader writes:

I ask, respectfully, if you can accept that there might be a third class of non-believer, someone who has fallen away after a sincere, intelligent examination of the evidence? I don't expect a reply and don't wish to...
