And many of these Atheists become so overzealous in their belief (or non-belief), that they become as fanatical as some fundamentalist religious types. And in that case, their Atheism almost becomes a religion in itself. And that kinda defeats the whole purpose of abandoning religion in the first place.
Not only that but these evangelical atheists, as I call them, undercut their own position by devoting so much time and energy against something they claim doesn't even exist. It's rather ironic when you think about it. It's why I can't take them seriously and why I'm pretty sure a guy like Christopher Hitchens was more than a little nervous as he approached death, despite whatever public claims he might have made. I would have loved to see his face after he passed to the other side.
Mods should mind their own business and leave poster's profile signatures alone.
