Those are overlapping, but not congruent, groups. There are also a number of posters who are fairly rabid in expressing their lack of belief in the non-material or supernatural. It is this last group whom I would identify as the anti-religious peanut gallery. That group may include some posters who have demonstrated a certain capacity for rational thought, but it also includes posters who are pretty irrational.
