Atheism Plus was just a group within Atheism, it was never meant to represent Atheism as a whole. It was just a group for like-minded people who think atheists should do more than just debate religion. If you don't share the views of a certain group, then you don't have to be part of it. No one had a gun held to their head.Hypocrisy - the A+'s, "PZM" in particular, claim to be rational skeptics but their ability to reason and understand a rational argument is low. The A-'s as you call them simply are the lesser biased rationalists who follow the evidence and not the fads.

He doesn't attack feminists at all, he attacks their unsupported claims. There is a huge difference between the two, A really big, vast, enormous difference.
As for attacking muslims?? Uhmm care to tell us why we should be tolerant of weaponized superstitious drivel that incites people to perform the worst atrocities on a daily basis? I'd love to hear your special opinion on that..
