The type of atheist who is offended by religious fundamentalists, whilst simultaneously displaying the exact traits he or she claims to find offensive in them (generally included, but not limited to, arrogance, bigotry, myopia, and a tendency towards circular logic, sanctimony, and melodrama.)
Radical atheists blame war, sexism, cancer, tornadoes, and George Lucas on religion, and, while vocally mocking personages held sacred by others, will attack blindly if Richard Dawkins is treated with anything other than blind and reverential worship. You can, indeed, not talk about 'The Dawk' without inciting a flame war, or as radical atheists call them "Crusades."
A common misconception is that all Raging Atheists tend to be high school/early college students who've just heard about Richard Dawkins for the first time. While this is a common specimen, just as many are middle-aged hipsters who, having been raised in a strictly religious household, began rebelling and ended up as the mirror (and equally annoying) image of their fundamentalist parents.
Rabid atheists roam the plains of Reddit and YouTube looking to take offense and clench their buttholes in self-righteous indignation. No one is certain of their exact numbers as individual pack members have been known to host a number of accounts; some of which they use to agree with themselves and some of which, posing as fundamentalists, they use to posit straw-man arguments.

Some Raging Atheist named Pastafarian4Dawkinz just approached me on YouTube and asked if I wanted a PDF of The Blind Watchmaker.

Get the Atheist Land mug.A website claiming to represent free speech and fairness for Atheists and everyone else but they will insult you and then ban you at the first chance they can get. The first chance usually occurs after you start disagreeing with them, and proving them wrong in everything they believe in.
A large portion of the forum populace have never been on a date in their lives, and therefore they will try to grovel before a female administrator called "smartmarzipan". Due to smartmarizpan's low self esteem, and the other users stroking her ego so they can get some Internet pussy, she will usually barge into your discussions with a bitchy attitude, going off on irrelevant points, and then finally locking the thread when you have proved her wrong in front of everyone and she has a temper tantrum.
Despite claiming to believe in a secular world for everyone, the users at atheistforums.com also have an odd obsession with Muslims, and they believe that even though it's ok to bash on Christians 24/7, anyone criticizing Islam needs to be closely monitored and possibly banned in the future. They staunchly believe that anyone insulting Muslims are "bigots" - despite the fact that they bash on Christians all the time, they do not feel the same rules apply to them. They believe it's OK to attack Christians, but Muslims should be left alone, and anyone criticizing Muslims are "racist" - despite the fact that Muslims are not a RACE.

Me: I think we should openly criticize Islam more for it's oppression of minorities, subjugation of women, and violence towards the outside world.
AtheistForums.com User: OMG NO!! You are a right wing conservative bigot who is just like Hitler!!! You are racist, you don't belong in this country!!!
Me: But Muslims aren't a race. You guys are Atheists and you call out Christians for the bad things they do. Don't you agree we should call out Muslims for the bad things they do? As an Atheist myself, I believe we should criticize ALL religions.
AtheistForums.com User: Umm, no.... Alright that's it. You are racist and we're banning you for trolling and being a bigot!! You are such a piece of shit, goodbye troll!!
Me, after seeing that I'm banned: What a bunch of hypocritical losers.....

Get the Atheist mug.An Atheist who is deliberately angry at all religious people for no legitimate reason. An Angry Atheist will often write books, create YouTube videos, or film documentaries with the purpose of destroying others' religious beliefs. An Angry Atheist will pretend to have the authority of science and history on their side, but will immediately reject any science or history that supports the claims of a given religion, with the accusation that it is "biased" or "un-intellectual".
Oftentimes, the Angry Atheist has been brought up with a religious mindset (usually Christian) which he/she has abandoned for intellectual/emotional reasons. But the painful feeling of having been raised on "lies" and "fairy-tales" has left the person very bitter toward all religions and religious people. And therefore, the Angry Atheist will essentially pick fights for philosophical vengeance, targeting religious laypeople and often avoiding debates with intelligent religious leaders capable of destroying their arguments.
An unfortunate side-effect of this out-going hostility, is that religious people will often attribute the attitudes of this minority to all Atheists, causing a negative stereotype to be formed.

Some examples of Angry Atheists include Richard Dawkins (author of The God Delusion), Sam Harris (author of The End of Faith), Friedrich Nietzsche (Atheist Existentialist who was the first to suggest that, "God is Dead"), and Brian Flemming (filmmaker behind The God Who Wasn't There documentary).
