As Mister Agenda pointed out, the discussions are mostly about other topics and not atheism. The only examples I can think of when atheism itself is actually talked about is when a young person ponders upon telling his/her parents and the consequences of it and whether other philosophies, ideas and dogma should or shouldn't be added to atheism, such as the work of A plussers.

Is Dawkins not your teacher/Grand Master/Pope of sorts, why have some attained levels on this Dawkins scale etc etc
No. The only instance I see professor Dawkins as a teacher is in the biology classroom. And just because he's name is on the scale doesn't make him any more influential. And what on earth has evolution theory to do with atheism?!
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
