A term often used by frustrated theists as a slur against atheists. The term is a contradiction since atheism is not a belief system or a cause, nor does it have any dogmas or requirements. An atheist doesn't convert people.

Get the evangelical atheist mug.
Someone who is an atheist but has a wide knolegde of science and religion. The evangelical atheist has choesen science over religion with good arguments as to why he or she has done so. It is basically a religion without a god.

(Looking at some of the other definitions i decided to post a half decent one. The other ones seem to look at evangelical atheists as assholes... that is not true. You will encounter some but at least they put forward logical arguments about their view unlike religious people. "Yeah well god said let there be light and it just appeared..." makes perfect sense.
