Thanks for your comments. This R. Dawkins speech pretty much sums up my brand of atheism. (Apparently some people dislike RD, or some of the things he's said/done. All I'm saying is: I agree what what he says in this speech.)
BTW, he uses the term "militant atheism." If you look up "militant," there is a sense in which it means, essentially, "activist." But I prefer saying "active atheism." I think RD used "militant" in this TED Talk, partly because speakers in that forum are expected to be entertaining--he did get a laugh with it. (And for the shock value.)
