Don't forget "personal entertainment."

Some people get burnt out or board, I have been at this 15 years and while much of it is redundant, sometimes I do run into new arrangements of word salad dodging the same old errors in logic.

Yea, but if it also helps other atheists learn the tactics and fallacies and errors of believers, that helps too. The more humans who think for themselves, the harder it becomes for superstition to lead to atrocities. Again, it isn't that atheists can create a godless utopia, but having the ability to question, blaspheme and ridicule keeps religion to a more manageable and civil degree.
