I cannot help but think that the displayed ignorance here seems to be intentional. The only person that I know saying " Militant atheism has become a religion " is the IT person at Salon who probably misread the title of the article. I profusely apologize for repeating that error and the obvious anguish it seems to cause y'all.

The title of the article is "Has Militant atheism become a religion?" my answer to that would be "no" but it appears that SOME people who are militant atheists as per the Urban Dictionary" definition are as dogmatic and zealous as the religious people the decry. (please note that I did not say all religious people. I only mean to include the religious zealots that that anti-religious zealots decry. )

If you all really think that a typo on a URL on Salon.com is worth so much discussion, by all means carry on.
