He's not an atheist! He's found god! This atheist is no more! He has ceased to be (an atheist)! He's found god on his way to meet his maker! He's a deist! Bereft of doubt, he thinks no more!

Matt "Framing Science" Nisbit has a post up that asks a somewhat very loaded question: "Did the Far Left Blogs Turn Lieberman Into a Republican?" In fact, now that I look more closely at the question, I'm starting to notice that the question isn't just loaded; it's loaded on multiple levels. I…
