OK, then, I thought of Sam Harris as being 'anti-theistic'. (That was the idea I was shooting for with the term 'hardcore atheist' -- being not just doubtful but actively opposed to the idea of dieties/creators.) His book is after all titled The End of Faith. Allowing for the idea that anything interesting might happen to consciousness after death strikes me as atypical for anti-theistics.
