There's always going to be a range of attitudes and engagement styles on the atheist side, just as there is going to be a range of styles on the theist side, from the thoughtful and engaging, like Neo, Steve, and alpha, to the shitters, like snowtracks, CDF47, and Little Rik. To expect one side not to express the variety of human nature and not the other is unrealistic, IMHO. I'm sad that we have seen a growing silence or departure from the more thoughtful theists, but I don't trace it to any change in behavior of atheists. I think the discussion the theists had about their purposes in being here recently may have contributed some to that growing silence, but others, like Mystic and CL, clearly have their own reasons for departing.
