Not a fan of Myers or A+. They're as bad as evangelical Christians, and that whole debacle with Myers and him calling out Michael Shermer as a rapist despite having literally NO evidence just strikes me as something that any sane person, atheist or not, should be working against. The whole 'if you're not with us, you're against us' mentality is just puerile and pathetic, IMHO.
The A+ crowd aren't united by their atheism; they're united by their collective dislike of anything that disagrees with their narrow perspective as to what atheism is and what it should be for everyone else.
I can't remember the exact URL, but I remember seeing on FT blogs the extensive rules about not being sexist or using derogatory sexist language towards women (a fair and agreeable point, obviously), with the clarifier at the end of 'don't be a dick'. Just, so stupid.
