Do Philosophy Professors Believe in God?

I am focusing, on this one particular point, a point you conveniently failed to put in bold, in the sentence before the one you bolded:

I provided some data that for at least one of the arts departments, philosophy, my contention was correct.

I did not claim that the survey above establishes all of my former claims. In fact, I was very careful to state that the survey addressed only one of the many things we had been talking about. But regarding that one thing, you can now comment. You asked for numbers. I provided some numbers showing that “the religious ideas of most faculty” in philosophy departments are “very rarely traditional and conservative” (one in 7 endorsing theism is sufficiently close to “very rarely”, I think, but if you want to quibble over an adverb, I’ll drop the “very”). Do you agree that the numbers I have provided are relevant to that one particular claim, at least regarding one particular university department? And if you agree that they are relevant, would you care to modify your previous flat denial? I realize, based on several years of interaction with you, that conceding a point to an opponent is not your usual style, but can you bring yourself to do it here? Or must I always be wrong about everything, and must you always be right about everything?
