The community overtone (my read in the last year) is that to participate a cognitive approach is implicitly required. "We should examine these dis-proofs of God and challenge with them; this will produce people more compatible with our way of thinking". The 'vibe in the community' as I have been experiencing it. Not just a focus on 'atheist evangelism' or communication, but specifically cognitive atheism. Or - in short - I can be an atheist alone all I like, but the community may not be appropriate for me.
Where is (how to find) a non-cog community which will be better suited?
Which particular community are you talking about? This one? Online communities? The one you live in? Or some club or group you have joined?
I cannot suggest any non-cog community for you because I don't know of any. On the other hand, I haven't noticed any implicit requirement of cognitive evaluation in this community - though that happens to be a path most of the members here follow.
