Attack of the Theocrats!
If we atheists tick that we "believe" in something. eg Humanism, then the fundamentalist believers will immediatley say we have a "faith " position, and our Humanism is another "religion"; (they seem to be ashamed of "faith" and religion now, judging by the way they want to mock us for allegedly having one). Whereas if we want to demonstrate that we reject Christian supernaturalism completely,-then we will have to do the "Dawkinite" thing and call ourselves atheists, for as long as theists exist. Calling us "ranting" or "shrill" is just psychological projection, considering how it has always been Christian preachers who are the shrill ranters by definition.
