        @NewYorker Mr. Gopnik, what's the figure for the date when a tone contemptuous of atheism emerged? A bit earlier, one imagines.

        @NewYorker Which was a terrible caption in the print edition and is no better here. We shouldn't have to supply the missing qualifiers.

        @NewYorker The veracity of proofs for the existence or nonexistence of God are directly dependent on how one defines God.
