I'm being condescending? You're talking down to me because I capitalized Atheist. Atheist is a group. You may only share on characteristic that you all agree that God doesn't exist, and that maybe all that you share, but in that belief you are a group. The name of that group is Atheist. Which is a noun. Nouns are capitalized.
You came in here with nothing to offer except nit picks at how I capitalized the word. I didn't come here to argue over the merits of Atheists or Atheism, I came here to ask a simple question. If you don't want to contribute to that, why are you saying anything?
