Get the fundamentalist atheism mug.Anyone who pushes their opinion of atheism on others. Just like any fundamentalist religion with the need to preach their belief systems to others in the hopes of converting others to their cause.
Bob preached his fundamentalist atheism when asked to bow his head in prayer at Thanksgiving dinner.

Get the fundamentalist atheism mug.While some atheists can certainly be annoying and intolerant as fuck, there is actually no such thing as "fundamentalist" atheism.
The definition of a fundamentalist is someone who won't be swayed by evidence - someone who relies on "faith". This is in contrast to the nonbeliever, who relies on hard evidence and reason.
And believe me, the second an intelligent nonbeliever finds a good enough reason to believe in any particular deity, he will do so immediately.
But what sort of evidence would convince a religious person that his faith is false?

"fundamentalist atheism"
Look up the definition of fundamentalism in dictionary, folks. "Angry" atheists are preaching for rationality and a respect for evidence, not faith.

Bob is such a Fundamentalist Atheist. I told him I'm a Christian but I don't believe in hell and he started telling me how I'm not really a Christian. What a dick.

Get the Fundamentalist Atheist mug.Atheist Fundamentalism is an oxymoron, because, fundamentalism implies a subscription to a belief set like a text book. One could be fundamental in a non-theistic philosophy, but, it is impossible to be an atheist fundamentalist.
However, in the context of it being used as an insult, it is used to denote atheists who are 100% certain that god does not exist (positive atheism) and hold anti-religious stances. This is the opposite of a religious fundamentalist who is 100% certain that god does exist and hold anti-atheist stances.

Atheist Fundamentalism is the polar opposite of religious fundamentalism because both regard their beliefs as being objectively correct while being just as intolerant as each other.
