Atheism doesn't need defending. Atheism is simply the absence of theism. That's it. What's to defend? An atheist doesn't actually have to give a reason for their lack of theism. It's just a stance on the claim that a god exists. It's no biggie. Many theists make a big deal out of it because they're insecure pricks and obviously harbour doubts but like to keep it covered up. The fact that people who don't believe in it is some how a threat to their faith and so they react heavily to it, which tells me a lot.
Why do they attack people with no religion? I say insecurity.

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
