Take a look at the number of posts he's made, how long he's been here, his reputation and note the fact that he's seventh in the 'top members of all time' list, just below me :p. Agreed, he's a geriatric old deluded theist :S but he's earned his place here and that, in my book, commands a certain degree of respect.
He may not be an atheist but in every other respect he's one of us so, as padraic suggested, take some time to understand the mind behind the mask before you vent your spleen.
The amount of posts someone has made and their place in the rankings on a message board will garner zero respect from me. I'm sorry, but to gauge the weight of someone based on the amount of things they have said is the most ridiculous notion I have ever heard. I don't mean to upset your message board politics, but that is bullshit, plain and simple.
