I agree, but is it a wrong statement about the distributions of Christians who would be unwilling to work with me if I mentioned that I don’t believe in any theistic gods?
I know sincere intelligent Christians who would just be relieved and respect that you’ve actually thought about the question of deism, and see that as a positive sign of intelligence, maybe even truth seeking?
Perhaps I’m writing unclearly, but I’ll try to restate: the point I’m making is that if were conditionalizing on someone being unable to work with me because I’m an atheist, then I’m saying this sort of thing is likely something that they have heard.

Ah, of course. That makes sense.
