Trends show more & more atheists are coming out of the closet to declare...

...themselves Christian. Why is this?
Do your own research for citations. The pew said you guys were at 15% and now are at less than 1%. Google it.

So they can set up as tele-evangelists and join in fleecing Christians

We've run out of room in the closet since we had to rent space to make some money... so we've had to kick some people out.

The ones coming out aren't really Christian - that's actually a cunning disguise to allow us to infiltrate society for our own nefarious plans.

You've got that backwards.
Many more people are declaring themselves to be atheist than ever before.

When you use statistics as part of your argument, it is up to YOU to provide those citations. I won't look them up as I want to see the citations that YOU found so we have a common point of reference.

You're comparing two surveys. What are they? Were they asking the same question?

I found this, which is probably your source for the 1%:
http://pewresearch.org/pubs/1181/religious-identification-of-those-who-do-not-believe-in-god

5% say they do not believe in God. Of those, 24% identify themselves as atheists.

Here's another survey of the religious composition of America:
http://religions.pewforum.org/reports

16.1% unaffiliated, 1.6% atheists. About the same fraction.

So where did your 15% come from? I'm guessing you used this "unaffiliated" number from one survey and compared it with the "atheist" number from another.

 

[samanthabell]

they r finnaly figuring out christianity is the true religon

 

[jackie]

You're kidding yourself.

 

[Sorry]

So the evangelicals will stop annoying them.

Also to face less discrimination. Atheists are the most discriminated group in the USA. The same can't be said about Christians.
