He just happens to be one the most famous ones of our time. The way I perceive the community has a whole is this. There are many sects in the Atheistic believe, the main ones are as followed; Type A:The one's who view Atheism as a superior school of thought and should be the only school of thought. Type B: Atheist's who peaceful co-exist with the religious school of thought and only attack when a rational view is being attacked with religious jargon (Stem cell research, and genetic engineering). Type C: Agnostics who follow suite with Pascal's wager who's school of thought reflects both possible outcomes and favor neither. Type D: The hidden Atheist, this person does not publicly nor socially admits to be an Atheist, he or she keeps their views cryptic to avoid confrontations. The most of common view point I've heard from this group is "I'm just a person, I don't involve myself in such matters.".
See you are the atheist I can respect. Everyone has a different perspective, and even though I believe in God or in my opinion accept and understand their is a God, I don't get my panties in a bunch like some people do, and neither do you if people disagree with us. Like you explain even in atheism there are various levels, just like there are denominations in various religions. Keep up the good work, even though we disagree on some issues, we also agree on other issues. I'd prefer to find common ground with people on this forum, but I'm not afraid to give my perspective even if it clashes with their paradigm.
As much as people will disagree i'm not here to troll, or just piss in the sand box. I'm here because I have an opinion, just like everyone else. Even though I'm not an atheist, I actually enjoy this forum. From a programming perspective it's one of the nicer ones.
