I would describe him as a militant antitheist, but he was a product of a different time. Things like teaching evolution in schools wasn't a given. Proper sex education was rare, abstinence only was more typical. State governments would routinely justify choices with biblical verses. They had mandatory prayer in some public schools. Gay people weren't allowed to get married. We needed to fight back against a religious power structure that was visible in media and government. Great news, we won! While all of those issues aren't resolved perfectly, they are largely solved. Religious leaders just don't have the clout they did twenty years ago. Nobody cares what the Pope says. It's over, or will be over soon. Now, in my opinion, atheists should choose to be gracious winners. We should attempt to find common ground with the religious, and agree to disagree where we can. We don't need to turn into the monster that we have just slain and put our boot on their neck. Revenge stories like that are best left in the old testament.
