"I hope society learns to be tolerant" and "atheism ought to be combated ... Replace(d)" do not go together at all! You don't often see hypocrisies so near each other in print like that!

You make what you want out of it. I think Atheism is ignorance of God, and is the position God is not known to humans either through innate knowledge or spirituality or philosophical proofs or any reason for that matter. Do I think society should be left to believe this is true? That there is no reason to believe in God? No.  Even if we go to the personal it's only none belief in God, and doesn't hold the stance that God is not known to others, I think we ought to try to make everyone know God. That said, knowing God and his chosen ones come together.

Do I believe Atheists should be combated? No.

Do I believe Atheists should do the same for religion? Definitely. It will either make them all fall or one will stand on it's own due to it having reasons and proofs.

"Atheism" is not a good word, that is one thing I wish atheists would not use. We have no universal "ism". It merely means "off" on god claims, not just your god claim, but all god claims. Out side our light switch being "off" we are diverse. We don't all have the same economic views. We do not have the same political parties. We don't always agree on how to debate religion either. 

"make everyone know God"? How? Through force? Do you like it when Christians like Ann Coulter say "we should invade their countries and force them to convert"(meaning Muslim countries and force them to convert to Christianity) Now I know you don't mean it like that, so don't praise it "make everyone know God".  

Nobody should want to use force to end any religion, but no, sorry you cant force religion on anyone. The only civil thing humans can do is make the claim, and debate the claim. Outside that, others are free to criticize the claim.
