And why are they all so angry?
Check out this guy… Why is he so emotional? Where is all this anger and hate coming from???
Is his anger justified? Why? Is this guys argument even logical?

Hi! Theist here from a non-crazy religious background. I pretty much asked the same question a few years ago and like you, I wandered onto an atheist forum to find out for myself from the horse's mouth.
As it turns out, some people act like assholes whether they're atheist or theist.
He's probably emotional because his former religion damaged him in some significant way. The anger and indignation may help him validate his own views and it may be cathartic for him to vent. Honestly, there's a lot of anger on both sides of the aisle. People -All people, regardless of their stance on Jesus, or Mithra, or whomever- need to take a huge step back and reexamine their values if they've resorted to shouting and insults.
