If Pro Wrestlers count. I would suspect Chris Nowinski maybe. They did a bit on Confidential a while back. In which they showed him at school and he was reading some books by Ayn Rand. Nothing substantial but possible. Another possible one is Raven. Who supposedly has a genius IQ in real life. I suspect Vince Mcmahon himself could be or at least agnostic.

Sadly, I have to agree. He seems to be past his prime, but wow, all his fights are a joy to watch (even those where he was pummeled senseless).

Nov 2000 Interview

"Takeshi: Aren�t you interested in religion?

Sakuraba: I don�t believe in god."

I really feel bad for the guy. Supposedly the Japanese press wasn't too gentle with him over his recent fluke loss to "Elvis"... At least he quit drinking. (I hope/think)

I believe the entire Buffalo Bills football team are pretty athy.

There's no other plausible explanation for them.

But would you say they are athier than my Minnesota Vikings? (They did have a pretty tough year ya know.)

You know, I did think of them right after I posted. They must be fairly athy - but, could it be that the Phoenix Cardinals might be the athiest of all?

They never have been, and probably never will be, anywhere close to winning anything!
