It looks like 80,927 atheists turned out to kick ass, or else Christians really are fond of Atheism, a scenario I find highly implausible. Most likely it’s just a kid who wrote a script to find some proxies and record masses of fake votes, but it tickles the funny bone anyway.

    This wasn’t a proxy, actually, they’re real votes. The poll was linked on a very popular image board (4chan), at which point people throughout the day voted. I happened across this page attempting to see if the results were still up on the original site.

  2. So is it really accurate? Hope someone will be able to verify it.

  3. I agree with Tion. it was a proxy. It was a real poll..
