Reverend William T. Cummings is famous for stating that "There are no atheists in foxholes."[1] Chaplain F.W. Lawson of the 302d Machine Gun Battalion, who was wounded twice in wartime, stated "I doubt if there is such a thing as an atheist. At least there isn't in a front line trench."[1] Henry More wrote the following: "In agony or danger, no nature is atheist. The mind that knows not what to fly to, flies to God."[2] On the other hand, the news organization MSNBC featured a story in which atheist veterans claimed that there are atheists in foxholes.[3]
