Exactly, that is what I've been bleating on about too
It is a gross error to take any person, or group, to be representative of atheism. Anyone who does so misunderstands the whole concept.
We may agree with things a 'prominent' atheist says, we may not. I think people are used to the farcical situation where you have some guy like the pope who tells you what your moral stance is, tells you what you believe or should do, pretty much. That's what makes it such a stupid system.
I find I agree with most of what the 'prommers' happen to say, but rarely with all of it.
Funnily enough I think atheists would agree more overall about things such as morality, than theists would. Which kind of throws a spanner in their works. I'm not even talking about different religions.
