Atheists in Fox Holes

From the The Slacktivist.

"I don't really understand the saying, "There are no atheists in foxholes." The reality, as seen from the enduring cultural and theological repercussions of World War I, is rather that very few theists emerge from the trenches."

"people try on theism when confronted with life in foxholes - then, much later, when it doesn't get them out of the foxhole, emerge from the foxholes questioning everything."

Yeah, but you ever try to cram that onto a bumper sticker?
