"Some hardline atheists can be as vindicative, presumptuous and arrogant as religious people and that attitude is a problem" Atheists can be assholes? Why does that even need to be said? Atheists are people and run the same set of qualities that any human can possess. "Parent isn't implying atheism is a religion by the layman definition (sthg along the lines of'a belief in sthg unprovable') but that its proponents behave like they were a part of sthg that looks like a religion." Religion or lack thereof has nothing to do with being an asshole. Software "zealots" promote their fanatical opinions but they don't worship "software". It's a crappy analogy when "asshole" would suffice.
