This is baiting a religious flamewar. Please don't do that here—it's the last thing we need. In this thread of all places.

Fair enough. I'll look forward to equally even-handed treatment the next time a Christian subject comes up.

That comment is still in the flamewar style. Score-settling is not in keeping with the spirit of intellectual curiosity that is supposed to animate this site: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html.

As it happens, you could answer your question in a few seconds: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que.... But the idea of measuring these things to draw conclusions about who supposedly has the upper hand is just another version of the same conflict. We're trying to take a completely different approach to...everything on this site.
