How many Believers perceive Atheists and it's not surprising since they don't understand the logic behind not believing in their Holy Moly of Choice would preclude Atheists believing in anything like a Devil that would have been created by a Holy Moly that is laughably false in the first place. I don't want to go off on a Lewis Black sort of rant but these people are so fucking retarded in their thinking that it scares me to think that they have driver's licenses.
I would have chosen different, less loaded terminology. Selectively ignorant. So utterly beholden to a religious ideology as to be intentionally blind to any facts that threaten that ideology. There are any number of highly educated, professionally successful people that are worthy of your ire. "Retarded" a doubly frought term, unfortunately.
