It isn’t ambiguous. It says 4.2 correct for Christian at the Knowledge of the Bible and 4.4 for atheists/agnostics.
For knowledge for Christianity it’s 6.2 for Christians and 6.7 for atheists/agnostics.
As far as the source with made me form that belief I don’t have noted it down.
You are however right that individual groups like Mormons still outperform the atheists.
Things are further complicated that a lot of Christians get knowledge of the Bible by attending Church where they don’t read themselves. An atheist on the other hand might have doubted Christianity and then went to read the Bible to make up his mind that Christianity is bullshit.
Interesting, do you have a source for this? I found http://www.pewforum.org/2010/09/28/u-s-religious-knowledge-survey-who-knows-what-about-religion/ which is ambiguous. (Roughly, it looks like Mormons and white Evangelicals do better than atheists, but atheists do better than white mainline Protestants and Catholics—and the latter two groups are slightly larger.)
