I recently heard an interview with outspoken atheist Penn Jellette of the comedy team Penn and Teller compare atheism as a religion to not collecting stamps being a hobby.
Recently atheism seems to have been bastardized into a religion whose sole purpose is rejecting all other religion, christianity in particular, using courts and their rulings as their weapon of choice.
That makes about as much sense, as those, including me, who don’t collect stamps creating a hobby whose sole activity is rejecting Philatelists.

I'm not overly comfortable talking about religion on a horsie board, especially when my own views go back and forth, BUT I do know what you're saying here.
A couple of friends of mine are atheists and they are slowly becoming more hateful, militant, superior and hostile toward other groups than... well it's a very strange thing to witness. They lash out as if anyone is telling them what to believe.
Just an observation that doesn't matter at all but yes... I do understand your point.
(For a change).
