While I don't condone violent behavior of any sort, the pastor isn't exactly blame free in this, either. Explicitly asking the girlfriend if he abuses her in front of both of them is a dick move and was most likely done to elicit an emotional response.

The atheist should never have resorted to physical violence, but my heart doesn't exactly bleed for the pastor.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
