I find the tenor of the rhetoric has as much to do with the strength of disagreement as anything. Any time you have a heated discussion, out come the invectives. It doesn't matter if it's theist and atheist, democrat and republican, or what. The few times I've been treated harshly is for criticizing an atheist's argument, usually for making unwarranted simplifications about religion.
