It's worth remembering that these guys are not trying to sell anything, they don't get anything for doing this. Think of it like a child, proudly bringing you a mud pie and telling you its a cake.
Of course you realize what will happen if you act all happy about getting the mud pie, don't you? The child will go make you another. Pretty soon we'll get all the little children on the internet bringing us mud pies. It may seem harsh but unless people really want to sift through piles of little Christian mud pies, it is probably better to call a plate full of shit what it really is.
I can see a valid point there.
My concern is simply that the smack down dilutes the message. And whilst I know that Atheism is not a religion seeking converts, I do like to see Christians freed from the things which people have bolted onto the faith itself (like creationism, republicanism or anti scientism).
To take the matter at hand, the "people evolved from monkeys" thing. That's a nonsense spread by the uneducated to ridicule a model they don't understand. I'd like to see people question that. However if the explanation is pre or suffixed by "you fucking moron" (or variation) the explanation is more likely to be shrugged off as Atheists being hateful.
That's all. You fucking hateful ignorant brainwashed Atheists.
