Do Athiests really believe?

That people who believe in the Bible and follow Jesus Christ must be somehow more young and naive, less educated or somehow not as intellegent as themselves? Do you really believe that Athiests are so far above Christians that one could not possible convert? (As I was a former Athiest, and have converted to Christianity).

There are many people who once were athiest and are now Christian, it is common. For a start here is the list taken from Wikipedia, of course, this includes only well know people of our time, it does not include any old Joe Bloggs from down the road, such as myself.
