Is C++ the Achilles heel of atheism?

Question

According to the latest reports from R&S regulars, Linus Torvalds officially dethroned Richard Dawkins as the Pope of Atheism because of a children's card game. This means all atheists will automatically change their opinions to match Torvald's, just like how they formed a hive mind with the previous leader.

Furthermore, this means all atheists are obligated adopt his disdain for the C++ programming language, even if some of them were C++ programmers before Dawkins was usurped. Therefore, the best way for us theists to win the flame war is to rename "Religion and Spirituality" to "Religion, Spirituality, and C++". This will allow us to band together with C++ lovers and gain an overwhelming advantage against the atheists in this section. Mahjong, atheists!

Here is Torvalds original position:

It is a sincere belief that gods do not exist and I just wish you would leave us alone....you believe, that's your right....I don't...and atheism is mine. Mo Atheist
