An Evangelical Atheist is a person that is an atheist and tries to spread atheism amongst theists. It is derived from Evangelism, meaning "Spreading Good News" as practised by Christianity. Due to the rise of the Conservative Christain movement in the United States of America and the increase of humanistic thought, along with the increased blending other many different religions, Atheism has become more and more popular. Evangelical atheist usually seeks to "convert" borderline theists, often by engagaing in debate with fundamentalists.
Theist: Those who do not believe in God and follow Jesus Christ go to Hell
Evangelical Atheist: Where is hell?
Theist: Its a fiery place where sinners burn forever.
Atheist: Yeah but where is it? and how do i get there?
Theist: its under heaven, maybe under the earth. And you get there by sinning.
Atheist: OK, is there a tunnel down to it? can you show me on a map? do you have a photo?
Theist: Look, it says so in my holy book.
Atheist: It also says to stone men to death if they shave their beards.
Theist: Nonsense!
Atheist : no its here look, leviticus. See?
Theist: er.....erm.....well....
etc...

Get the Evangelical Atheist mug.A person that does not believe in the idea of a God either due to the lack of evidence supporting the idea, the massive trove of contradictions or both.
Not all atheists hate religion or support evolution, this is merely a claim from religious people unable to realise that their religion is a belief floating on faith, not a fact backed up with other facts.

Some reasons Atheists may use for no believing in religion
1- "You claim the Earth cannot have formed itself yet you say that it was made by an invisible sky man that formed themself?"
2- "If you read your bible you will see how cruel your god is and all the atrocities done in their name. Even if your god was real I wouldn't believe in someone like that."
3- "I decide to question things to get my knowledge rather than assume something so complex for me to understand instantly needs a creator. If fundamentalists actually listened to us and researched the theory of evolution (and making out the fact of evolution doesn't exist either)then maybe they would actually realise that it makes more sense than their religion full of flaws and contradictions

Get the Atheist mug.Most of the time are nice people who don't push there beliefs on Christians, just as most of the time christians don't push there belifs on Atheist's. The Media, makes both seem true. But dont get me wrong, there are both types. My science teacher back in 6th grade had once said to a student that he would love to tell him the truth about Christianity, and if it wasn't for laws stopping him he would. That's the example of the bad kind, someone who has to to push opinions all over people, and the fact that he was like 11 years old was especially stupid.
The atheist belief though, is often strange. Atheist belive in no higher power, however there is no evidence that they are right. The Big Bang theory is a theory, not fact, and even if there was a big bang, where did THAT come from? Life is so uncertain and history is unclear to know what happensa and what has happened.
But no matter what it will always be this way: Where there is faith and hope, there is always someone to ruin it. Like I said, there is always the good kind who dont push it on people, science in generel seems to push belifs like this. People were a whole lot happier not knowing all these scientific facts supposedly disaproving there whole life and belifs, why does it have to be that way? They say ignorance is bliss, BUT they are not provin ignorant yet! The way I see it, everything but medical science is not neccisarily needed. Science has created the very things we fear, chemical weapons. Science sheds light on the world, but the light can kill you. The whole basic idea of science is to find out what every single thing really is. I honestly do not care if everything but lighning is made of atoms, but I really care those same atoms could destroy a whole country.

Get the Atheist mug.According to paranoid Christians with a persecution complex, anyone who is openly an atheist and has the gall to express a desire for the same rights and privileges as any other group.
Atheist: I think that we atheists deserve the same rights and freedom of expression as any other group.
Christian: You're such a Militant Atheist.

Get the Militant Atheist mug.A big-A asshole atheist who believes any of the following: that “science” is necessarily opposed to “religion” or religion to scientific discovery; that a theory of change in the physical world (evolution) somehow logically implies that there is ‘no room for God’; that “science rules” even though can kill people; that “science” can solve all moral problems; that we can run society like a science experiment changing all our beliefs on the spot like scientists do about peer reviewed theory with p-values; that “God” is the product of gaps in our scientific knowledge not a recognition and community of right living; that the only thing stunting science is religion; that it isn’t somehow fucked-up to think of the science-religion nexus of _centuries_ ago as representative of today
science-athetards: “Science flies you to the moon, religion flies you into buildings.” “Praying doesn’t get you to the moon.” “No answers, therefore God.” “We don’t need god to explain the universe.”
Daaamn. Go away you self-deceived science athetard. “Science” built the planes and showed how to do maximal damage during attacks. Theists created and funded the space program. Swimming doesn’t get you to the moon either - just another science-athetard non sequitur!
If you don’t like praying, don’t do it – who asked the science athetard, anyway?
Why do science athetards overlook climate denial, secular anti-vaccine hysteria, and the corporate assault on nutrition science and regulation?
Tell the science athetard that god keeps us at home in the universe and shows what is important and what is not. "Science without Religion Is Lame, Religion without Science Is Blind"

Get the Science-Athetard mug.A logical, common-sense based belief of how the world works. The understanding that the idea of a "god" is very irrational, possibly comical. An Atheist does not just accept a story called the Bible as being non-fiction. A realization that the Bible is in fact a fiction book written by dead guys.
