27. Nothing offensive at all about that
With the exception of so called "strong atheists" there would be no problem in a pill that proved the existence of god. Most atheists would not find themselves proved wrong, but rather justified in holding out for proof.

On the other hand, a pill that proved the non-existence of god would prove that theists and deists were wrong. Nobody likes to be proved wrong. That is why atheists (except "strong atheists") just say I don't believe. That is a statement that cannot be proved wrong.
